4.0 out of 5 stars A worthwhile release for fans, May 17, 2000
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: BBC Sessions (Audio CD)
This is a great document of several live-in-the-studio Dinosaur, Jr. performances, most (all?) of them done for John Peel's famous BBC radio show. A lot of these tracks have been available previously only through bootlegs. The songs are selected mostly from the "You're Living All Over Me" and "Bug" era. The quality of the recordings are not spectacular, but they are definitely very listenable. Sometimes the guitar is not as high in the mix as you'd like, and sometimes the vocal or bass might not be high enough, but in general these are clean recordings that you will have no trouble listening to over and over again.

I'm not sure if I'd recommend this disc to someone who is new to Dinosaur Jr. I'd send such a person to "Bug", "You're Living All Over Me", and "Green Mind" first. Regardless, Dinosaur Jr. was one of the most important bands of the 80's decade, and their raw power and strange beauty is capture excellently here.

4.0 out of 5 stars Well worth buying for Dino Jr fans, July 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: In Session (Audio CD)
In England this is probably the easiest Dino album to find. I bought it to hear some raw early music and wasn't dissapointed. The screeching guitar madness of tunes such as Leper are perfectly balanced with the semi-accoustic beauty of Get Me and Keeblin. This is a raw live insight into Dinosaur Jr. If you have never seen them live, this is as close as you'll get.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Disc, February 19, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: BBC Sessions (Audio CD)
If you like Dinosaur like I do. Nice sound quality, and Great selection of songs from the YLAOM/BUG era, it is a little short- only about 36 minutes but that doesnt effect how many stars i give it. I just throw this in my three disc changer with Youre living all over me and Dinosaur, and hit the continous button it all sound great to me i really enjoy it and you will to if you are a D.J fan.
