WATCH: Blur At The BBC

Albarn, Coxon and co. perform 'The Universal' and 'Under The Westway'

Laurie Tuffrey

Yesterday, Blur performed a couple of concerts for BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music – watch highlights ‘The Universal’ and ‘Under The Westway’ below.

Also, have a read of our recent review of Blur’s 21 boxset, where Tina Winter concludes: "21 is staggering on a variety of levels. Everything here is supplied to give you the full Blur experience. From the maddening to the imperial, from the feuds and heartbreaks to the extraordinary results, such things drove them on to. There’ll never be another band like them. And if this is really it and they leave Blur to the history books, then it’s a perfect way to remember this unique, occasionally annoying, but genuinely quite amazing band."

‘The Universal’:
