Live Forever: Britpop Classics

In the mid-'90s, British musical confidence was so high that it created space for both sharp-tongued pop eccentrics like Pulp and snarling rock ‘n' roll stars like Oasis. Key songs of the era—Supergrass' fiery “Richard III”, McAlmont & Butler's glowing wall-of-sound “Yes”, Blur's silky “Badhead”—are abuzz with giddy melodiousness and the excitement of a generation seizing its moment.
