Different Class is a 1995 album by Pulp. It was released at the height of Britpop, and led to the band being regarded as a part of that movement. Two of the singles on the album – "Common People" (which reached number 2 in the UK singles chart) and "Disco 2000" (which reached number 7) – were especially notable, and helped propel Pulp to UK-wide fame. A "deluxe edition" of Different Class was released on 11 September 2006. It contains a second disc of B-sides, demos and rarities. This is an album cover. ...
