The Latest In The Hugely Successful 'C' Series, Riffing On The Original 'C86' Cassette. Exploring The Post-Baggy, Pre-Britpop Indie Scene Of 1992. Packed With Well-Known Favourites - Radiohead, The Charlatans, Ride, Lush, Inspiral Carpets, Dodgy, Boo Radleys, The Auteurs, The Stairs, Levitation, Sultans Of Ping F.C. Among Them. And Many More Lesser-Known And Lost Treasures. With Sleevenotes By Mojo's Lois Wilson. 1992 saw the British indie scene unwittingly poised to go overground and global in the wake of the guitar's revival in the early 1990s. 'C92' captures something of a no-man's land moment in time, with the "baggy" scene brushed aside by American grunge and the artists who'd come to define the rest of the decade only beginning to emerge. From the intensity of shoegaze pioneers Ride and Lush, through to melody-driven 60s revivalists Inspiral Carpets and The Stairs, in hindsight the year can be seen as a period of healthy transition and expansion which ultimately saw the scene pulled together by the music media under the umbrella term "Britpop". Established names such as The Charlatans and Boo Radleys glided effortlessly over the landscape re-alignment, whilst soon-to-be household names like Radiohead and The Cranberries took their first tentative steps into a bigger world, enjoying the license to pursue their artistic persuasions with the luxury of major label financial backing. A sea change was clearly coming. Essential for collectors of the 'C' series, fans of that time and place and anybody interested in the ongoing, mazy story of British pop music, 'C92' brings with it familiar favourites and previously unknown gems, to sit alongside other titles in the series.
