Supergrass - BBC In Concert, Glastonbury Festival, Worthy Farm, Pilton, Britain, 6-27-2025

Finally! The flood of albums from the 2025 Glastonbury Festival ends here. I posted all the sets that got enough votes in the poll I made for this festival, which I think ends up being 21 albums in total. This last one is from the British band Supergrass.

I like Supergrass quite a lot. I've only posted one album from them so far, but I plan on posting more. I already have a bunch of their BBC albums ready to post, though that'll have to wait since I have a very long line of albums to post. But once I do post those, this one will get renamed, to take into account the earlier BBC volumes in the series.

Supergrass were in existence from 1993 to 2010. They broke up for ten years. But since then, they've reunited with all the original members. They've occasionally gone on tour, but they haven't released any new music (at least not yet).

The music here is unreleased. The sound quality is excellent. 

This album is an hour and six minutes long.

Supergrass - Believer - Non-Album Tracks (1995-1997)

I feel I've been remiss in not posting anything from the British band Supergrass. But there are so many great musical acts out there. Even after doing this blog over five years, there are many I haven't gotten to yet.

This is a collection of non-album tracks. It's the only such collection I have. For some reason, the band recorded a big surplus of songs while recording their first two albums, "I Should Coco" in 1995 and "In It for the Money" in 1997. In particular, when I got "In It for the Money" shortly after it came out, it came with a second disc of extra songs. Seven of the songs here come from that.

Supergrass is considered a "Britpop" band, and got popular in Britain around the same time as other Britpop bands like Oasis and Blur. Like the best of those bands, their music had a new style while still building on musical styles from the past, especially the 1960s. One can see that here by the fact that although most of the songs here are originals, the three covers, "Just Dropped In (To See What My Condition Was In)," "Stone Free," "Where Have All the Good Times Gone," are all from the 1960s.

All of the songs here have been officially released. Most of them are from B-sides. Only four are not, tracks five through eight. Those come from a 20th anniversary version of the "I Should Coco" album. Note that most of the others made it onto a later deluxe version of  "In It for the Money."

For some reason, the amount of non-album tracks seems to go way down after their first two albums. (The last song is actually from 1999.) Probably, they had a really big burst of creativity in this era. "In It for the Money" is my favorite album of theirs, and it's made its way to various best albums lists. For instance, readers of the British music magazine Q twice voted it one of the top 100 albums of all time. So I don't have any more non-album tracks collections from them planned. However, I do plan on posting more of their music, especially BBC material.

This album is 50 minutes long.

I'm not quite sure what the story with the album cover is. The band's 1997 album "In It for the Money" has a cover that seems to have been used the vast majority of the time. But there's also an alternate cover, which is this one. All I did was remove that album title and replace it with a new title.
