Pulp Live Performance of A Little Soul at Glastonbury Festival 1998

Venue: Worthy Farm Location: Pilton, England, United Kingdom Date: June 28, 1998

In June 1998, Pulp delivered a memorable performance of 'A Little Soul' at the Glastonbury Festival, a pivotal showcase for their evolving sound. This live recording came shortly after the release of their critically acclaimed album 'This Is Hardcore,' which had debuted earlier that year. The album marked a departure from the band's earlier Britpop style, venturing into darker, more introspective territory, a reflection of lead singer Jarvis Cocker's artistic maturation. Interestingly, this performance highlighted Pulp's position at the height of their popularity, as they captivated fans with their unique blend of wit and melancholy. Cocker's theatrical stage presence, paired with the distinctive sound enriched by guitarist Richard Hawley's contributions, made this performance one for the books. It was truly a moment where the band solidified their legacy as one of the defining acts of the '90s music scene.
