Jarvis Cocker: Pulp Could Reform

Jarvis Cocker has claimed in a new interview that Britpop icons Pulp could reform for a special Glastonbury performance.

Glastonbury has had many iconic moments. In its thirty year history the event has played host to some of the biggest names in music, with this summer's event boasting performances from the likes of Bruce Springsteen and more.

However the summer of 1995 saw some of the most dramatic events in Glastonbury history. The Stone Roses were scheduled to headline the event, before guitarist John Squire broke his arm in a bike accident.

Little known Sheffield group Pulp were called upon to replace the Manchester gods, with many predicting a rabbit-in-the-headlights style scenario.

However the Jarvis Cocker led group pulled out all the stops, giving a triumphant performance that helped catapult them to pop stardom. Unveiling their future single 'Common People' the show is regularly cited as one of Britpop's most defining moments.

On hiatus since 2002, Jarvis Cocker admits in a new interview that Glastonbury could tempt Pulp out of retirement.

"Glastonbury means an awful lot to me, I would love to play there again," he said. "We've talked about it, there we go, there'll be a band reunion" the singer told The People.

However Jarvis Cocker has also enjoyed a successful solo career. Returning this year with 'Further Complications' the singer is due to perform at an art installation in London later this year.

The singer is set to play the Village Underground, performing to free aerobics classes.
