Lulu - BBC Sessions, Volume 3: 1968-1969

Here is a third volume of British singer Lulu performing for the BBC.

I originally posted this album in 2020. In 2026, I drastically changed it. I found a bunch of new songs, and moved many of the songs to an even more changed "Volume 4." So I'm just treating this like a brand new album, rewriting my comments from scratch.

In 1968, Lulu got her own BBC TV show. She kept it through 1975, though the name of the show sometimes changed from year to year. For 1968, it was called "Lulu's Back in Town." For 1969, it was called "Happening for Lulu," or simply "Lulu." All but one of the songs here are from those shows. The first five songs are from the 1968 show. Tracks 7 through 19 are from the 1969 show. The one exception is "I'm a Tiger" (track 6), which is from the "Top of the Pops" radio show.

Note that Lulu didn't release a lot of records, compared to how many songs she performed for her TV shows. So most of the songs here were never released in any form. Also, note a number of interesting duets she did. 

Everything here is unreleased. The sound quality is excellent. The TV shows had a live audience. But I used the MVSEP program to remove the cheering, as much as possible. 

This album is 49 minutes long.
