 to access audio and video on collective you need real player.A colourful supplement to Coxon's career. You just know Coxon was always the coolest dude in Blur. Sure, he plays up to his introverted, geek-boy persona, but this LP is certainly the most endearing and accessible of his solo efforts. It's a range-y record: from the cinematic country of Are You Ready?, to the scuzzy Blur-esque Spectacular, to the string-inflected sweetness of All Over Me. Plus, Coxon’s penchant for rhyming couplets results in the line, "You're very pretty and you're tanned/But I'd rather sleep with my right hand", on the Beck-influenced Bottom Bunk. A thoroughly British record, spiked with pop perfection. Graham Coxon - Happiness In Magazines, released 10 May 04 on Transcopic.
