Belle and Sebastian
Well... I'm back from a short holiday with some great recordings of Belle and Sebastian over the past decade. Great recordings by a great band.
Belle and Sebastian / Bowlie Weekender
Recorded 04.25.1999
The Bowlie Weekender was a one-off music festival curated by Belle & Sebastian at the Pontin's Holiday camp in Camber Sands, Sussex between Friday 23rd and Sunday 25th of April 1999. This recording was broadcast on Radio One. A great soundboard recording of their 'early' years.

Don't know much about this recording, but the sound quality is fair... the show is great... and the selection of songs has some of my faves.

Recorded January 2006
Wow! I love this recording. Essentially a stripped down acoustic recording of four of their songs... it has a lo-fi feeling that shows what their songs would have been without the production of their later recordings... and you know what. I love it! These are some of my least favorite songs in their original recordings (except the excellent Get Me Away From Here), but here... I wish there was more.
1. Sukie in the Graveyard2. The Blues are Still Blue
3. Funny Little Frog
4. Get Me Away From Here, I'm Dying
