Comments:

    1977-1983, UK radio sessions. The poor quality and lack of completeness
    make this anthology of radio recordings not as good as it could be. There
    are 2 missing sessions; Kid Jensen from '78, and Almost Blue tracks from
    '81. Also "You Belong To Me" from the 2nd. Peel session, "Stranger In The
    House" from the 3rd. Peel session, and 2 Capital Radio tracks are missing.

Quality:
             '-' - Joachim Weisbrod {weisbrod@fzi.de}
             Overrecorded and thin. Really badly edited - Kube, Peter
             {p.kube@rz.uni-sb.de}
             I'll put in a good word for this one. The sound could be better,
             but it's still acceptable and makes good listening. It's
             nice hearing Steve's keyboards on the MAIT numbers, and this
             this take of "Pills & Soap" is rather unusual - Paul Hosken
             {hosken@c31.rb.op.dlr.de}
            Performance: 8/10. Sound: 7/10 - John Steffes
