I Should Coco by Supergrass

I Should Coco, Supergrass's debut, landed on Parlophone on 15 May 1995, and the title is Cockney rhyming slang for "I should think so". Gaz Coombes, Mick Quinn and Danny Goffey had only formed the band in 1993; their first single, "Caught by the Fuzz", came out on the tiny local label Backbeat in October 1994 and won them a major label deal. Sam Williams, who'd caught them while scouting in Oxford, produced the album down in Cornwall.
It sounds like a gang let loose in a sweet shop: buzzsaw guitars, cheeky vocals and enough energy to power the Britpop boom single-handed. "Caught by the Fuzz" is a breathless, headlong dash, and "Alright" bounces with a grin so wide you can hear it. The album went to number one in Britain and became Parlophone's best-selling debut since the Beatles' Please Please Me, which is not a bad club to join.
