Pulp Live Performance of 'Common People' at the Bizarre Festival in Germany

Venue: Freilichtbühne Loreley Location: St. Goarshausen, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany Date: June 22, 1996

In June 1996, Pulp delivered a riveting performance at the Freilichtbühne Loreley, capturing the essence of Britpop during its heyday. This live recording took place shortly after the release of their landmark album, 'Different Class,' which came out in late 1995 and skyrocketed Pulp to fame. 'Different Class' featured infectious hits like 'Common People' and 'Disco 2000,' showcasing lead singer Jarvis Cocker's witty lyrics and charismatic stage presence. Fans were still buzzing from the album's impact, making this concert a pivotal moment in their career. Interestingly, Pulp's rise to prominence was characterized by their sharp social commentary, blending humor with pointed critiques of British society, which resonated deeply during the 90s. This performance at the Bizarre Festival not only highlighted their musical prowess but also cemented their status as one of the defining bands of the era.
