In 1993 and 1994, Squeeze had at least three BBC studio sessions to promote their 1993 studio album "Some Fantastic Place." Most of their performances were later included in their archival album "The Complete BBC Sessions." However, unfortunately, they played some of the same songs multiple times, with barely any difference between the versions. So I've only included one version of each. I believe the songs they played multiple times were "Third Rail," "Some Fantastic Place," and "Tempted."
They went on to release the albums "Ridiculous" in 1995 and "Domino" in 1998. Then they broke up for an extended time. Their next studio album of original material wouldn't come out until 2015. So I wanted material from those albums, but it seems they didn't do any more BBC studio sessions in that time, at least none that I could find. However, they did perform a BBC concert in Cambridge, Britain, in 1998. I thought about posting the whole concert, but these concerts mostly consist of them playing their biggest hits, and I've posted a bunch of concerts like that already. So instead I just took the relatively new songs they played in that concert ("Domino," "Donkey Talk," "Memory Motel," and "To Be a Dad"), plus one older hit that wasn't played in concert that much, "Goodbye Girl," and added it to this album. Since there's a mix of studio and live material, I removed the cheering noises from the live cuts with the use of the UVR5 audio editing program.
So that's why I said up above that this volume is "meant to be a collection of studio sessions," since about half of it actually comes from a concert. But now it plays like all studio sessions.
Tracks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 7 have been officially released on the "Complete BBC Sessions" album. "It's Over" is from one of the exact same BBC sessions as some songs on that album, but it remained unreleased. The last five songs are from that 1998 BBC concert I mentioned above and are unreleased.
This album is 53 minutes long.

The cover photo only features Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook, who basically became Squeeze by this time, since they co-wrote all the songs and were the only two consistent members. It's from a photo shoot in New York City in 1996.
