BBC to release archive performances from Blur, Pulp, Suede and more

BBC Radio 1's 'Evening Session' was one of the highlights of 90s radio, giving established and upcoming bands a platform to perform any material they wanted for the millions of listeners the show would get. Now the BBC are releasing some of these performances as part of a new compilation CD called 'Brtipop At The BBC".

The 14-track compilation will be available to buy from the 14th July and features performances from the likes of Blur, Pulp, Suede, Supergrass, Manic Street Preachers and many more.

There will also be two bonus CDs filled with original singles from the era's most relevant bands that never managed to play the sessions, such as Radiohead, Oasis and The Verve.

See below for the tracklist for 'Britpop At The BBC'.
