Dr. Strangely Strange - Radio Sessions '2022

Tracks list

       Irish psychedelic folkies Dr Strangely Strange were active from 1968
– 1971. Their two Joe Boyd-produced albums from that era, Kip Of The
Serenes (Island) and Heavy Petting (Vertigo), are both highly sought after by
collectors. In their heyday, the band recorded only two BBC radio sessions, a
Top Gear slot and an In Concert, both with John Peel. Frustratingly, the
BBC’s tapes were wiped, but after extensive research with European
collectors, TLAK has been able to locate off-air recordings of both sessions,
which have been painstakingly restored. Added to these are brief radio sessions
for Dutch and Danish radio sourced from the original recordings, as well as a
Dublin rehearsal take of Sign On My Mind featuring Gary Moore, a friend of the
band and guest on Heavy Petting.
