Blur

In 2009, Blur was experiencing a significant moment in their career marked by their reunion after several years of inactivity. Leading up to the live recording at Hyde Park, the band had released their seventh studio album, "Think Tank," in 2003, which showcased a more experimental sound. The concerts at Hyde Park on July 2nd and 3rd were part of their reunion tour, occurring after the announcement of their return to celebrate the band's legacy. Both performances were recorded and later compiled into "All the People: Blur Live at Hyde Park," released in August 2009. This live recording captured not only their hits from earlier albums but also underscored their evolution as a band, reflecting on the journey they had taken since their formation in the 1990s. The Hyde Park performances energized long-time fans and introduced their music to a newer audience, highlighting Blur's lasting impact on the British music scene.
