My Bloody Valentine - Peel Session And Rare Tracks [12', LP, Unofficial]


Last week i was at the Utrecht record fair and obviously i came home with some good stuff again. That place really is heaven for vinyl collectors. MY BLOODY VALENTINE recorded a Peel Session on September 25th 1988 and it was broadcasted, but never officially released on CD or vinyl. This is actually the first time i come across a MBV bootleg with these tracks. The others songs on this compilation are "rare tracks" that were included not too long ago on the "EP's 1988-1991" 2CD, plus the excellent cover versions of Wire's "Map Ref 41°N 93°W" and Louis Armstrong's "We Have All The Time In The World", from the soundtrack of the James Bond movie On Her Majesty's Secret Service. The first was originally on a Wire tribute CD called "Whore", and the second on the "Peace Together" charity compilation album.
Bootlegs are usually full of typo's and omissions, and PEEL SESSION AND RARE TRACKS is no exception to the rule. On the back of the cover where the tracklisting is, they simply forgot song #4 of the Peel Session ("Feed Me With Your Kiss"), and they spelled "Angel" as "Angle". But all in all, it's a decent compilation of songs that are otherwise unavailable on vinyl. It wasn't too expensive either, so a welcome addition to my MBV collection.

  2. Sorry man. Not only is this blog not at all about music rips, but also i don't have a record player that can digitalize lp's. Good luck hunting.
