The amazing thing about Galaxie 500, as evidenced by the many covers featured on their excellent Uncollected disc and the box set, is their ability to take a song, cover it, and make it into something uniquely their own, sounding as if the song emanated from the minds of the group themselves. Capturing their October, 1989 and November, 1990 Peel Sessions for BBC Radio, this disc includes songs from Jonathan Richman, the Sex Pistols, Young Marble Giants, and Buffy Sainte-Marie, all falling under Galaxie 500's spell, with the remainder of the disc being rounded out by various EP and album cuts. The band is in top form, sounding every bit as fresh and relevant in 2005 as they did 15-years prior. There's a good chance die-hard fans will already own bootlegged copies of this with substantially worse sonic quality; the high pedigree of sonic quality here is enough to warrant purchasing this disc, even for the most stalwart of fans. ~ Rob Theakston
Personnel: Dean Wareham (vocals, guitar); Naomi Yang (vocals); Damon Krukowski (acoustic guitar, drums, background vocals).
Recording information: 09/24/1989-10/30/1990.
Mojo (Publisher) (p.107) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "'Flowers' and 'Blue Thunder' are one-off moments captured with startling clarity, the power axis sliding between Dean Wareham's distended guitar strafes and Naomi Yang's earnest, sensual bass playing."

Purchase Peel Sessions CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Guadalcanal Diary Walking In The Shadow Of The Big Man/Jamboree CD (2003)
Peel Sessions album
 $10.39  
Collectables combined Guadalcanal Diary's first two albums -- 1984's Walking in the Shadow of the Big Man and 1986's Jamboree, both originally released on Elektra -- for this 2003 release. The first album, produced with a small budget by Don Dixon, helped establish them as a cult group, while the second -- produced mostly by Rodney Mills, with a couple songs produced by Steve Nye -- laid the foundation for 2X4, their third and best album. While 2X4 was easily the group's ...
| | Minus 5 I Don't Know Who I Am CD (2003) Let The War Against Music
Peel Sessions CD music
$13.85
Although Scott McCaughey pays his bills as a loyal R.E.M. sideman, the longtime Young Fresh Fellows frontman's Minus 5 project has allowed him to explore his fundamental pop/rock leanings with colleague Peter Buck on albums like 2001's acclaimed Let the War Against Music Begin. Recorded in tandem with that set, I Don't Know Who I Am -- a limited-edition disc reportedly restricted to a pressing of just 2,000 copies -- is far darker and more experimental, as evidenced by the set launcher, "There Is No Music." Meshing a slide guitar with a brooding lo-fi feel, the song's alt-country ...
| | Pete Anderson Daredevil CD (2004)
Peel Sessions music CDs
$10.55  
Pete Anderson's third solo outing has been a long time coming, and one gets the distinct impression that it's the album he's been itching to make all along. Given that Daredevil is completely instrumental, the guitar geeks already have something to salivate about. But there's much more to it than that. Anderson played the vast majority of instruments, with help in a few places from multi-instrumentalist Skip Edwards and minimal assistance from trumpeter Lee Thornberg and fiddler Donny Reed as well. There's also some string work performed by some mysterious entity know as "the Skipper." ...
| | Small Faces Ogden's Nut Gone Flake CDs (1968) England; Deluxe Edition
Peel Sessions songs
$33.75
The Small Faces present their four disc U.K. import reissue release OGDEN'S NUT GONE FLAKE.
Having begun their career as the archetypal Mod band, the Small Faces latterly embraced traces of flower-power's whimsy. Astute enough not to sacrifice their identity, the quartet retained a distinctive perspective, as evinced by a string of superb pop singles, including "Here Comes The Nice" and "Itchycoo Park." A sense of pop melody and adventurism culminated on this album which encompassed tongue-in-cheek fun ("Lazy Sunday") and passionate love songs ("Afterglow"). Steve Marriott's voice remains completely ...

The 10-year-anniversary deluxe edition of CROOKED RAIN, CROOKED RAIN is a Pavement fan's dream come true. It feature no less than 37 (!) bonus tracks over the course of its two discs. Some are studio outtakes, some are alternate versions, others are rare B-sides, but all hail from the CROOKED RAIN era and underscore the degree to which ...

| | Will Oldham All Most Heaven CD (2000) Extended Play
Peel Sessions songs
$13.89
One of the more perplexing of Will Oldham's between-album projects, All Most Heaven is also one of the most satisfying once fully digested. A joint release with well-traveled Chicago sideman Rian Murphy (who produces here), this release is the lighthearted counterpart to the somber and prayer-like Get on Jolly EP, which was released around the same time. Grandiose and overblown in almost every way except it's length, ...

Peel Sessions album
$8.49
This single-CD compilation is the companion volume to the BMG Heritage release Bona Fide Bluegrass & Mountain Music (2002) -- and both focus on the high and lonesome sound of traditional Americana from the 20th century. The enormous success of Joel Coen's O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000) spawned not only a well-received soundtrack, but also collections such as this. More Bona Fide Bluegrass and Mountain Music (2002), which includes one-and-a-half dozen sides which, despite spanning over half a century, are undeniably united by common acoustic-based motifs and organic musical themes. RCA Victor was one of the first companies to fully embrace and take advantage ...
