NY VINYL LP OM TILBEREDNING VINYL 2019

3 X 180 GRAM VINYL.

Billy siger: "Work in progress. Det var sådan, John Peel tænkte på sine aftensessioner, og gav kunstnere muligheden for at prøve nye sange i et studiemiljø. Sådan så jeg også på dem. Bekræftelsen af en Peel-sessionsdato var et signal om at få mine ideer sammen, for at definere materiale, der hidtil havde været lidt mere end ord, der blev skrevet ned på en lyd-check, eller hvorfor. numrene her har en anden frasering og et andet arrangement end det, der dukkede op på pladen, at du kan høre, at jeg stadig føler mig ind i dem. Flere blev udtænkt og skrevet aftenen før sessionen.
Den råhed var altid en nøglekomponent i mine BBC-sessioner, spændingen ved at lægge noget derude for allerførste gang. Og her har jeg samlet alle de bedste øjeblikke gennem 36 år af mit igangværende arbejde."
