""We were obsessed with the fact that this was our 'Pop' album (we had finally achieved some 'popularity' when 'Common People' was a hit) and, as everyone knows, all pop albums have 12 songs on them: 6 tracks per side. Only problem: this took the running time of the record to 53 minutes. We were told this would compromise the audio quality of the vinyl record - but we were more bothered about not compromising the quality of our Pop Dream.""
""Released in October 1995, Different Class debuted atop the UK Album chart and spawned four Top 10 hits, including 'Common People' and the double single 'Mis-Shapes/Sorted for E's & Wizz.' Four months before the album's arrival, Pulp headlined the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury Festival, filling in for The Stone Roses on short notice. The Different Class 30th anniversary edition marks the first time that the audio from that performance has been released.""
Pulp will issue a 30th anniversary expanded edition of Different Class on October 24 via Island Records/UMe. The release was remastered by Geoff Pesche at Abbey Road, overseen by Jarvis Cocker and Mark Webber, and is available as 4xLP or 2xCD. The package includes a 28-page booklet with previously unseen images and an essay based on new interviews. The expanded edition features a recording of Pulp's full Glastonbury Festival 1995 headline set, issued for the first time. Different Class originally debuted at number one in the UK in 1995 and produced four Top 10 singles. Pre-orders are ongoing.
