Question
What are the best 3 Blur CDs, or can you tell me of a site that gives comprehensive reviews?

Answer
That depends on your tastes. Leisure is a bit unprofessional, but if you like that rough sound, it's good. Modern Life Is Rubbish is the definite start of Britpop, and its fresh sound is very nice. Parklife builds upon the Britpop image and is quite poppy, as is The Great Escape. The self-titled album is a lot of rock twisted about, and I definitely love it. 13 moved away from all of their previous sounds completely, and so it's very spacey and original. Think Tank has a very African vibe, so if you're into world music, that would work well for you. My top three recommendations would be 13, Blur, and the Greatest Hits if only to introduce you to all of their sounds.
