The show was very special for Pulp fans as it was the
band’s very first performance in Italy.
And the English alternative rock band certainly paid back the fans’ long
wait and enthusiasm with a great performance and light show, especially by
their dandy front man, Jarvis Cocker, who also impressed fans with his basic
knowledge of Italian.
The British group was founded by a young Cocker way back
in 1978 (Cocker's
original preference was to name the band after the film “Pulp” starring Michael
Caine). Cocker and Co. recently
reunited in 2011 with the original band members, a group made up of six
outstanding musicians. Their first album
“It” goes back to 1983 while their second album “Freaks” arrived four years
later.
The turning point in the band’s career came about in 1994
during the heyday of the Britpop music scene.
In 1995 the band came out with the album “Different Class” which gave
fans two singles, “Common People” and “Disco 2000”.
Following in the footsteps of such great former acts such
as UB40, Joe Jackson, Moby, Iggy Pop and Johnny Rotten in the very same venue,
Pulp certainly didn’t let down fans (and organizers alike) with their
exceptionally fun brand of music!
