One (Spotify) says "where people with black hair drink a special kind of brew" and the other (Pulp wiki) "where people with black hair is treated specially". Which one is the correct one? Maybe if someone has the sleeve fr...

Well, I had a couple of hours spare earlier so thought I'd take a trip down memory lane and have another go. I did use AI to separate some vocals and instrumentals out. You can certainly tell I...

Does anyone think this might never have been created in order to ensure that Jarvis had a stockpile of 'unreleased songs' to pick from? We know he's picked 'Cuckoo' and 'Got to Have Love' from this pile. Might others be repurposed at some point? It feels like the deluxe editions gave away a real amount o...

I have vague memories of a story about the 31/8/91 gig being recorded on film and distributed in the past couple of years. Did this happen...?

The night before DC was released Warp Records on Division St in Sheffield opened at midnight to sell the album. It was a really nice atmosphere down there. Pulp fans who went to buy the album were rewarded with a 12x12 double sided promo signed by the band. I dug mine out and here it is.
