  Section 1 - Interview:

  01. So, we have a new album from Blur, who are
 now a three piece. What's the mood in the  camp; and how does everybody really feel  about the departure of Graham Coxon?
  02. Were there any doubts about getting started on the new album?
  03. The title of the CD is THINK TANK. Who   thought of that?
  04. Now, with Graham gone, you are a guitar
 player down. How's that turned out; and will
 it be a big problem when it comes to playing  live?
  05. What benefits did you get in making this
 album from Damon's adventures with Mali
 Music etc?
  06. You recorded in Marrakech. Why?
  07. How important is it for your music to have
 meaning and relevance?
  08. How important and influential was The North
 African Experience?
  09. You have collaborated with Ben Hillier and
 Norman Cook (aka Fatboy Slim). Why choose
 him?
  10. So let's talk about Ben Hillier, and his   contribution to this record.
  11. Is Think Tank the best Blur album yet?
  12. Is there a Blur Master Plan?
  13. So you're now a three piece. You've made
 a terrific new album. How do you sum up what
 it's like to be in Blur in 2003?
  14. Time passes; music changes. Are Blur still
 relevant in 2003?

  Section 2 - Track by track:

  15. Ambulance, Track 1, seems to be a good CD
 opener.
  16. The next track is Out of Time. Is this a plea
 for Peace?
  17. Norman Cook was involved in making Think
 Tank. On this next track?
  18. Next up, Good Song. Is there a story with
 this?
  19. And another story...
  20. Brothers and Sisters next. Going back to your
 roots??
  21. The next track, Caravan, sounds very 'desert'.
 Made in Marrakech?
  22. Next track is We've Got a File on You. Punk
 lives!
  23. Track 9 Moroccan People's Revolutionary......
 Bowls Club. Please explain that!
  24. Track 10 is Sweet Song. The Big Ballad.....
  25. Now, track 11 is a kind of jazz odyssey, with a
 long saxophone solo at the end.
  26. Gene by Gene is next - big Norman Cook
 influence here?
  27. The last song has a big sound. It closes the
 album perfectly.
