DESCRIPTION

PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNGEN
A deluxe 7CD / 1 DVD NTSC 0 Format, 48 page hardback book set celebrating 50 years of Family and containing the band's performances for the BBC. Growing out of the R&B boom of the early 60s, Family's sound evolved into a unique mix of blues, folk, jazz, psychedelia and high energy rock'n'roll built around the distinctive vocals of frontman Roger Chapman, Charlie Whitney's innovative guitar playing and Rob Townsend's intelligent drumming. At the BBC is the most comprehensive release of Family's recordings for the BBC, featuring seven CDs containing tracks beginning with their first session for Top Gear on 26th November 1967 and running up until their last session with John Peel on 22nd May 1973. The eighth disc is a DVD (ntsc, region 0) of nine live tracks from iconic BBC shows including Top of The Pops and The Old Grey Whistle Test and a rare performance on ITV's Doing Their Thing. The set contains 20 previously unreleased recordings including new versions of 'Scene Through The Eye of A Lens', 'Old Songs New Songs' and 'The Weaver's Answer'. All CD audio has been remastered for this release. Also included in the 48 pages of this deluxe hardback book are John Peel's now legendary interviews, introductions and anecdotes, 2018 liner notes, a poster replica promoting Family Entertainment and rare photographs including shots from the lens of Michael Putland and Jill Furmanovsky. At the BBC is presented in a deluxe hardboard slipcase.
