Believe me, i have approached / reminded EMI about the BBC project several times since 2002. None of it has led anywhere & the BBC themselves are equally intransigent. Leaving aside the 'Bernie Andrews Tapes' (which, as I said - John Beecher could issue or 'lease' right now) - the BBC themselves have 27 tracks in fine quality sound: Dance On! / Nivram (1963), The Warlord / T R & F O F Bunt / I W I C S L M S Arthur (1965), I Met A Girl / Shindig / Lady Penelope / S.O.T.Socks (1966), Jigsaw / T Waltz / Bombay Duck / S, C & H Y Dad? / T W Roses / Lara's Theme (1967), Evening Glow / N N Nights / D O Mrs Bell (1968), Apache (1973) + The John Peel Sounds On Sunday sessions from 1974. A release which fans would gladly purchase. There is absolutely no reason whatsoever to stop the BBC releasing those tracks. I just wish that they would. They blocked the 1959 - 1962 material 10 years ago.....but it's currently out of copyright. RollerCoaster?? Where are you?? Fans are desperate to hear the glorious talents of Hank, Bruce, Jet, Tony, Brian and John during the BBC era. That's all any of us want - pure and simple.

Bests....Rob


Interesting.
