If The Wedding Present were such completists they'd give a proper DVD release to the *Punk and Dick York's Wardrobe videos, bad quality bits and pieces on YouTube are no substitute! A Wedding Present collector will already have most of these Peel sessions on CD (I'm thinking of the Strange Fruit "BBC Sessions" and "John Peel Sessions 1987-90" CDs as well as "John Peel Sessions 1992-1995" CD released by BBC Music). The Peel sessions that were previously unreleased were #2 (from late '86) and #7 from 1989 (from their Ukrainian phase). Three of the discs are live material. So am I going to have to buy this for the one session that I don't have? What would've been appreciated is a comprehensive set of all of their BBC sessions, because they've done quite a few non-Peel sessions and their very first one, for Andy Kershaw in 1985, I think remains unreleased except for a track that showed up on "Tommy."
