Alright it's kinda of an anniversary around here. And what better way to suck-up to the boss by putting up one of his faves. I have lots of Peel sessions but sadly I don't have The Mekons that someone was looking for. But I'll see what I can find. I'm sure you all know what the Peel sessions are but if not a brief history. Bands played live in the BBC studios and were taped to be played at a later date. So you get a great sounding recording with no overdubs, with and without an audience. And I'm sure if I got something wrong someone will correct me. Can't find this on Amazon so it's gotta qualify as a boot. @ 192. No back cover. (Goddamn I sure hope Prince don't like these guys)
