Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
A rarity among Peel sessions in the mid-1990s as this one went out entirely live when the legendary DJ was sitting in for Mark Radcliffe and invited garage-punk stalwarts The Flaming Stars in to do the honours.

Never before released in any format, this outing at the BBC’s Oxford Road studios in Manchester finds the band in blistering form with a four-song blast featuring stunning versions of early singles ‘Ten Feet Tall’ and ‘Bury My Heart at Pier 13’.

Ten-inch vinyl limited edition of 350 copies featuring a set of postcards plus download codes – and a sleeve essay by Max Décharné and cover collage designed by Joe Whitney.

Songsheet: Ten Feet Tall, Spaghetti Junction, Bury My Heart At Pier 13, Down To You

it's an absolute treat to have both of The Orchids Peel.sessions available digitally and on vinyl. I'd forgotten just how good they sounded. Four fantastic songs - a rip-roaring version of the much loved Caveman and the beautiful Dirty Clothing from the greatest album of the 90s, Unholy Soul. Truly wonderful. richardw27
