Notes:
Quality ratings are out of 10 (10 means as good as an official
release, 9 is excellent, 8 means very good etc)
All times are in Minutes and seconds
(RM)
- means my own remastered series onto CD, where
either my own original recordings (sometimes from original master
cassettes), have been improved or recordings received that have
required improving. This process includes removal of hiss, crackle
and clicks, and careful editing to repair imperfections etc.
Most of the above Radio Sessions
are of approximate 12-18 minutes duration, where not specified.
At present I do not have exact timings of some of these. The majority
of these recordings are still on their original cassettes, and
gradually I will be remastering these onto Mini-Disc, and creating
selections on CD featuring full sessions of 4 or 5 artists. The
quality varies from tape to tape mostly depending on the tapes
used at the time. Those with ratings of 10 are all superior quality,
leaving those not quite as good for one reason or another as a
9.

Please
note that none of these recordings are available to download.
