Pulp

In March 1991, Pulp was on the cusp of significant change, having just released their album 'Separations' in 1991, which, while not a commercial success at the time, helped shape their evolving sound. This live recording of 'My Legendary Girlfriend' captures a pivotal moment in their career at The Leadmill in Sheffield, a venue that became synonymous with their early shows. Known for its intimate atmosphere, The Leadmill was where Pulp honed their performance style and connected deeply with fans. Interestingly, during this period, frontman Jarvis Cocker was developing the blend of wit and social commentary that would define later hits. This performance is a vibrant snapshot of a band on the brink of stardom, capturing the raw energy and authenticity that garnered them a loyal following before their breakthrough with 'Different Class' just a few years later.
