Tim Mee A terrific collection. As perfectly recorded as you’d expect from the BBC and a splendid career-defining selection of their tunes (all wrapped up in beautiful box set). Favorite track: If I Had A Hi-fi (Vic Galloway Session, 08/10/2018).

seanq101 I am the Quig, and I love The Snare.

about

A box set that was 25 years in the making, give or take.

There was always a vague plan to do a compilation of our BBC recordings and so I set out for us to do different songs over our sessions. I almost succeeded.

Flashbacks of adrenalin, boredom, excitement and tiredness.

Here's hoping we get the chance to add to this collection.
