MP3 Of The Day: Graham Coxon

To celebrate his rejoining of Blur, and to the hope of their rise to power once again, we acknowledge the brilliance of Graham Coxon. The track for today comes from his 2004 release Happiness In Magazines, and is called “Girl Done Gone”. It is a slow burning blues rocker, bare bones at first and later shows its true colors as the guitar solos fly. To one of the most criminally overlooked artists of our times, Graham, we salute you.
