It was thirty years ago today … in a body without a heart
Blue Lines was Massive Attack’s debut album, although they had been around the Bristol sound system scene for years. Featuring tracks like ‘Unfinished Sympathy’, it is now seen as the album that launched Trip-Hop, and has received wide acclaim over the years, including being voted by Q Magazine readers as the ninth Best British Album of all time.
