James: 'Albarn is delaying Blur reunion'
Alex James has claimed that singer Damon Albarn is the current stumbling block preventing a Blur reunion.

James said that the band members keep taking it turns to scrap plans for a reformation, and admitted that it could be him who objects next time.

He told the BBC: "We all have to sort of take it in turns to not want to do it. I think it's Damon who doesn't want to do it at the moment, I think it's my turn next.

"March onwards I can't do it because I am in a bad mood."

However, the bassist added that he was still hopeful for a reunion, claiming it would be a "disaster" for the band not to record together again.

"We are all talking...you know it's great, we have all gone on to do other things, it would be a disaster to think there would never be another Blur record."

Blur's last album was 2003's Think Tank.
