One of the section of this weekly show was a session by a new band
These two songs would have been circa 1987
*Note - there was a third song in the session, 'Hosanna In Excelsis', but I can't find the original (raw) demo BBC version. Instead, here is a live version from 1988
| The voyage of discovery can be very exciting. How did people react to this in the early 80s?
