Squeeze - BBC Sessions, Volume 5: 1982-1992

I'm gradually moving forward chronologically with BBC albums by the British band Squeeze. The first one was a collection of BBC studio sessions, then the next three were BBC concerts. Now, with this fifth album in the series, it's back to another collection of BBC studio sessions.

It seems Squeeze didn't do studio sessions for the BBC very often during this era, because this album deals with a ten-year time period. The first four tracks are from a 1982 session, then there's a big time jump to a 1989 session for the next four tracks. That's followed by a single song from 1990, "Another Nail in My Heart," which comes from an appearance on a BBC TV show. Finally, the last four songs are from a 1992 session.

Virtually all the songs here are released, from the album "The Complete BBC Sessions." The sole exception is that sole song from 1990, "Another Nail in My Heart," which is unreleased.

Oddly, the band seemed to avoid playing hits for the 1982 and 1989 sessions. But the 1992 session was composed entirely of older hits, done in acoustic styles.

This album is 47 minutes long.
