1986 - 14 Iced Bears

I'm ashamed to say they've completely went under my radar over the years. Two sessions,of which this is the first,many singles,a couple of albums and a plethora of compilation albums indicating they were (ARE) loved by somebody out there.

Joy Division 1979

A surprisingly late in the day first session for one of Manchester's finest. The first track cuts off rather sharply,may be intentional so I've not trimmed it.

2002 - Explosions In The Sky

Way too long for Reddit so I've uploaded it to YT. From Texas,this was their first session for Peel. And rather good it is too.

Siouxsie And The Banshees 1977

One of the most influential bands to come out of the 70s without doubt. This is their first session for Peel. No record deal as yet but apparently God is a punk and heard their lamentations the previous year.

Camera Obscura 2001

Bit of a double bill this time. After a lot of fruitless searching for the Smashing Orange Session (Thank you for the recommendation u/sssweatss) I decided to put together a session from the timeless wonders Camera Obscura, only to find the SO session was on YouTube all along. Sometimes the simplest solution is the best. So I hope you enjoy both.

Happy Christmas!

Seasons greetings. It seems we have aquired a few new members in the last year,swelling the number of members to an unheard of 170! So hello to you all and thank you in advance for any sporadic posts you care to share.

Feeling slightly festive I decided to put together a small selection of bands/artists that I've run across over the last year . Fifteen tracks,not new bands by any means mostly but crucially some were new to me. Perhaps you'll enjoy the playlist perhaps you'll utilise it to clear the house of unwanted guests. Its your call.

If you like the idea why not dm me over the coming year with your own suggestions and we could combine our obvious good tastes in music for next Christmas. Just a though.

Anyway. Merry Christmas to you all and have a great year.
