CD, Reissue
Parlophone EU
The fourth studio album by the English rock band, originally released in September 1995. The Great Escape is often considered to be the final album of a trio of Britpop albums released by Blur in the mid-1990s, after 'Modern Life Is Rubbish' (1993) and 'Parklife' (1994). With Blur's 1997 self-titled album, the band would change direction and move away from Britpop in favour of a more lo-fi and alternative rock sound. Features the singles: 'Country House', 'The Universal', 'Stereotypes', 'Charmless Man' and 'It Could Be You'.
