Green Day – BBC Sessions (CD) • relix.shop

The BBC sessions captured Green Day at a pivotal stretch, from the scrappy punk trio that broke through with *Dookie* to the band navigating the post-*Nimrod* landscape. Steve Lamacq's Evening Show was a genuine tastemaker platform, and these Radio 1 recordings document a rawer, more immediate side of songs that would go on to define a generation's introduction to punk rock.

Between1994 to 2001, Green Day would visit the BBC’s Maida Vale Studios in London four times and record live sessions for Radio 1’s “Evening Show” and its popular DJ Steve Lamacq. This compilation documents those sessions, and includes many of the band’s hits including “When I Come Around”, “Basket Case”, “Brain Stew/Jaded” and “Minority”.
