Gallagher & Lyle - BBC Sessions, Volume 2: Sight and Sound, Aylesbury Civic Hall, Aylesbury, Britain, 3-2-1978

Here's a second and final BBC album from the singer-songwriter duo Gallagher and Lyle. 

In the early 1970s, Gallagher and Lyle wrote a couple of hits when they were members of the band McGuinness Flint. They went solo as a duo in late 1971. They didn't have much success for a few years. But then they broke through with their 1976 album "Breakaway," which contained three hits in Britain, "Heart on My Sleeve," "I Wanna Stay with You," and "Breakaway." Then, in 1977, they had a minor hit with "Every Little Teardrop." Curiously, this doesn't include "Every Little Teardrop," but it does include their other three hits, plus "When I'm Dead and Gone," which was a big hit they wrote for McGuinness Flint in 1970.

To be honest, I've found three other Gallagher and Lyle BBC concerts. I included a few songs from them on the "BBC Sessions, Volume 1" album. But I don't plan on posting them, as I don't think there would be much demand. Besides, this one is the longest and the best, since it happened after they had their big success in 1976.

Five of the songs here were released on the official album "Live in Concert." Those are tracks 2, 7, 8, 13, and 19. Everything else is unreleased. The sound quality is excellent.

This album is 53 minutes long.

I don't know any details of the cover photo. But it obviously was taken in the 1970s.
