PJ Harvey – The Peel Sessions 1991–2004 (Island Records, 2006)
Released as a poignant tribute to the legendary BBC broadcaster John Peel, this compilation serves as both a historical document and a deeply personal thank you. Spanning fourteen years of Harvey’s association with Peel, this collection features tracks hand-picked by the artist from her nine official BBC sessions.
Stripped of studio gloss, these performances capture the raw, protean spirit that defined Harvey's evolution. From the early biblical punk energy to her later, more reflective folk-tinged arrangements, the album showcases an artist at the height of her powers. It captures an intimacy and rapport that only the Peel sessions could foster, proving that Harvey’s live work remains as essential as her studio catalog.
Key Highlights:
- Includes rare tracks not found on official albums, such as "This Wicked Tongue" and her cover of Willie Dixon’s "Wang Dang Doodle."
- Features standout performances of "Snake," "That Was My Veil," and "Beautiful Feeling."
- Includes the poignant final track, "You Come Through," performed at the tribute for John Peel.
- A must-have for fans seeking an unfiltered, vibrant, living record of one of alternative rock's most singular artistic visions.
