Hometime with Bush & Richie

Richie was joined by the legend that is Alex James. They chatted cheese and talked all about his Big Feastival music festival where he'll be playing bass in a Britpop Classical band.This week also marks 30 years since the Battle of Britpop, where Blur & Oasis battled it out to top the charts on August 14th 1995. It was a choice between Roll With It and Country House, and Blur were, of course, victorious. What does Alex remember from that golden era?
