Covering the period 1971-1990, this lavish 8CD set anthologises Lindisfarne’s output for the BBC.
 
Including more than eight hours of recordings, over half previously unreleased, the set has been ompiled by Colin Harper alongside Lindisfarne founder members Rod Clements, Ray Jackson and Ray Laidlaw
 
Remastered by Martin Stansbury, the comprehensive booklet includes an authoritative essay by Chris Charlesworth
 
While several 1971-74 Lindisfarne BBC sessions were released on CD in 1998, this 8CD set not only adds substantially to the volume of material from that era but extends it to cover the 1978-90 reunion period. Featuring 131 audio tracks, of which over 60 are previously unreleased, all fully approved by the original band members and their estates.
