The Peel Sessions 1991-2004

The vinyl reissue of the 2006 collection of PJ Harvey sessions with the late BBC Radio 1 DJ John Peel, spanning recordings from the start of her career in 1991 up to 2004, will be released on 28th May.

Originally released two years after Peel’s death in 2004, the record came with a tribute message:

“More than I would ever admit, for fear of embarrassment on both sides, I sought his approval always. It mattered. Every Peel Session I did, I did for him. It is with much love that I chose these songs, in his memory. A way of saying, ‘Thank you’ once more. ‘Thank you John.”
