Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars BBC Redundancy.......2006-02-04

This cd comprises 16 tracks taken from BBC radio shows such as The Peel Session, Richard Skinner Session and The Kid Jensen Session and are presented in the order in which they originally were aired.

While this is a great collection, 8 of these tracks were already previously released and still easily obtained from the Volume 2 Radio Days cd. So if you already own that cd (which I do), then you are really only getting 8 songs instead of 16. This is unfortunate as both cd's have tracks exclusive to themselves. So if you are a completist, then you really want to have both cd's as Radio Days has 4 songs that BBC Radio Sessions doesn't have.

The unfortunate side of all this is that there are still a handful of tracks that have yet to see the light of day on an officially released cd such as Moles, Marilyn Dreams, Scare Some Life Into Me and Film Music which can be found on the unofficial and crappy sounding Nightmares In Wax cd if you can find a copy.
