Genesis - BBC Broadcasts - Incl. 40-page Booklet (3LP Vinyl)

BBC Broadcasts is an eagerly awaited edition to one of the most cherished catalogues of popular music of the 20th Century. Curated by founder member Tony Banks and the group’s long time engineer and producer, Nick Davis, BBC Broadcasts offers an alternative history of one of the UK’s most artistically and commercially successful bands. In a 53 track 5-CD set or 24 track 3LP Set, this collection represents the cream of the group’s work recorded by the BBC between 1970 and 1998, featuring contributions from all three of the group’s vocalists, Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins and Ray Wilson. With notes by author Michael Hann, and packaged with a 40 page booklet, Genesis At The BBC contains favourites such as ‘Carpet Crawlers’, ‘No Son Of Mine’ ‘Turn It On Again’ and many more.

With only a handful of these tracks previously available, BBC Broadcasts is both a collector’s cornucopia and alternate greatest hits collection. Selections from John Peel’s show, both of the group’s Knebworth performances (78 and 92) as well as their much-loved 1980 show at London’s Lyceum, and their triumphant sell-out run of shows at Wembley in 1987.

Rounded out by material from the NEC in 1998, and Paris Theatre and Nightride sessions from the early 70s, as well as the much sought-after encore version of Watcher Of The Skies at Wembley Empire Pool in 1975, BBC Broadcasts is a veritable treasure trove.
