Blur Hyde Park Gigs Set For Live CD And MP3 Release

Blur fans will be able to download a recording of the band's shows in London's Hyde Park, it's been announced.

The recordings of the gigs, which take place on Thursday and Friday, will be available within seven days of the shows.

The reunion concerts will also be available on deluxe double CD, which is available for pre-order now.

The Hyde Park concerts will mark Blur's biggest independent shows since they announced plans to reform at the end of last year.

As previously reported, the band wowed fans at last weekend's Glastonbury festival with an emotional greatest hits set on the Pyramid Stage.
