The Peel Sessions Album is a compilation of tracks recorded by the Irish pop group Microdisney for the Peel Sessions on radio DJ John Peel's BBC Radio 1 show. Peel championed the band describing them as "an iron fist in a velvet glove",[2] and Microdisney recorded six sessions for his show[3], amounting to 24 songs, gathered from their first three studio albums and earlier self released tracks.[1]
The vinyl LP edition collected 12 songs from these sessions,[4] the CD versions and later compact cassette reissues added two additional tracks.[5]
