Brinsley Schwarz - BBC Sessions, Volume 5: 1972-1973

Here's another volume of the British band Brinsley Schwarz performing for the BBC. This is a collection of studio sessions.

As I mentioned in earlier write-ups in this series, I previously posted three BBC albums from this band, only to completely overhaul the series and turn it into a seven album series instead. This largely corresponds to what used to be "Volume 2." However, there are additions, deletions, and changes. 

For instance, the first five songs are ones I only recently found. They come from archival album "Last Orders." That album has very sketchy notes, and didn't reveal the source, except that it was from an "obscure radio show." (I suspect the people who put the album together were deliberately vague so they wouldn't have to pay more royalties to the sources.) However, I found an Internet mention of those exact songs in that exact order coming from an Irish TV show in 1972. So the details are still sketchy, but at least we know something.

The next four songs, tracks 6 through 9, come from a BBC session in late 1972. All of them were released on the official album "What IS So Funny about Peace, Love and Understanding." The five songs after that, tracks 10 through 14, come from a 1973 BBC session. Two of those were also released on the "What IS So Funny" album, two more were from the "Cruel to Be Kind" official album, and one, "I Worry ['Bout You Baby]," remains unreleased. The last song, "Murder on My Mind," is from a different BBC session later in 1973, and came out on the "Last Orders" album. As always, you can find more details in the mp3 tags.

This album is 46 minutes long.

I don't know any details of the cover photo. But it was one of a very few that showed all the band members and was in color. I used Krea AI to improve the image detail.
