Peel Sessions (Tim Buckley album)

Peel Sessions is a live album by Tim Buckley. It was recorded in studio 1 at 201 Piccadilly London, UK on April 1, 1968, as a session recording for BBC radio DJ John Peel. The session was subsequently broadcast six days later on April 7, 1968. The session consists of folk-oriented songs from Buckley's Goodbye and Hello - Blue Afternoon period recorded in a sparse manner with only Tim's vocals, two guitars and percussion. Peel would later comment on this session as one that "defines essential music".
