LC session from 1968 on radio BBC6 (iplayer)

Post by andy barnes »

Leonard Cohen live session (from summer 1968) on BBC6 - on iplayer until sat 23 July - The live music hour broadcasted at 4am on sat morning. Last quarter of an hour of the programme only, but worth hearing.

Thanks for this, Andy. Much better sound than I remember from the At the Beeb bootleg, which I'll try to dig out now. It's striking how upbeat yet unhurried Bird on the Wire and You Know Who I Am sound. I wonder if we'll get an offical release one day. (I won't be holding my breath, though!)

Bhasi, beside that old CD bootleg (was it Yellow Cat release from mid-90s?), in 2001 or so there was fan CDR circulating which has the complete BBC Sessions in excellent sound board quality... It leaked from BBC archives.
