Blue Jam (album)

Blue Jam is a compilation album of sketches and music taken from Chris Morris's surreal radio show Blue Jam, broadcast on BBC Radio 1 between 1997 and 1999. Released in 2000, the album captures the show's distinctive dark humor, unsettling soundscapes, and unconventional use of ambient music. The compilation features a range of absurdist scenarios, bizarre characters, and disturbing situations, all hallmarks of Morris's comedic style. The tracks are not presented as distinct episodes, but rather as a continuous stream of audio, mirroring the late-night, dreamlike quality of the original radio broadcasts. The music used is predominantly ambient and downtempo electronica, contributing to the overall atmosphere of unease and surrealism. The album serves as a representation of the most memorable moments from the three series of the radio show.
