A Head Full of Ideas, a career-spanning best-of from Then Recordings, captures The Charlatans’ journey from 1990 Manchester hopefuls to enduring UK favourites. With 13 Top 40 albums (including three No.1s) and 22 hit singles, the band has faced personal and professional challenges but remained resilient. Their signature sound—driving Hammond organ, Northern Soul and house rhythms, swaggering guitars, and Tim Burgess’s distinctive vocals—remains timeless. Their recent album, Different Days, was hailed by The Guardian as one of their best.
