PJ Harvey does her best work naked. For all the tantalizing changes in direction over the past 15 years, it was the British songwriter's barebones disc, Rid of Me (and its raw companion piece, 4-Track Demos), that made the greatest impression. These recordings from the late John Peel's celebrated BBC Radio show see her returning time and again to her basic blues roots, offering delightfully bruised takes on both early classics like "Sheela-Na-Gig," from her first performance on the show, through "You Come Through," a track that was recorded at a tribute shortly after Peel's passing. Along the way, there are plenty of rarities, stylistic diversions, and traces of dark humor to make Harvey fans wish the package could have been twice as long. --Aidin VaziriCustomer Reviews:
interesting.......2007-05-26
PJ Harvey has been one of the most interesting musicians of the past 15 years. The records have been hit or miss. But there have always been great songs. John Peel was an early enthusiast. Remember when Polly Harvey came on the scene, we were recovering from heavy metal, rap, and rave, and just at the beginning of grunge. This is probably the greatest female music done after Patti Smith and The Pretenders. There are early bits like "Oh My Love" and "Victory" from 1991. Some stuff she did with John Parrish. Not a lot of hits here. A few cover songs. One by Willie Dixon. PJ Harvey has a lot of records out there. This is another one for the pile. More a tribute to John Peel than a showcase for rare tracks. Pretty good anyway.
Great addition for PJ fan........2007-01-09
In All Her Glory.......2007-01-02
This cd nicely recaps P.J.'s career, with tracks from her debut, "Dry"and most of her projects since then, with the exception of "To Bring You My Love" and "Is This Desire?". All songs were drawn from performances produced by John Peel for the BBC, which gives them a slightly different luster, and a rock solid punch.
P.J.'s songs can be described as little expressionist dramas writ large in black and white, and wonderful balancing acts of dynamics and minimalist sound. She sometimes combines huge shards of grunge rock with absurdist lyrics. Check out "Naked Cousin" , an off-the-wall ditty that paints a picture of a Bacchanalian madman running through the fields in abandon. Sounds weird? Well, it ROCKS like crazy. Her Rainer Ptacek cover, "Losing Ground" is another delight, matching switchblade edginess with Captain Beefheart dissonance. The best track from "Dance Hall at Louse Point"--"That Was My Veil" , is here, along with the prettiest song from "Stories From the City..."("Beautiful Feeling") . The album closes with "You Come Through" done beautifully and sincerely as a tribute to the late John Peel.
This cd is sure to please longtime P.J. fans, and it's a good sampler for the uninitiated.
Five stars.

Album Description
UK EP for the Scottish electronica act. Tracks, 'Happy Cycling', 'Aquarius (Version 3)' & 'Olson (Version 3)'. 2001.Album Details
Includes Exclusive Track "happy Cycling".Customer Reviews:
for completeists only.......2005-09-30
Aquarius [Version 3] is a suberb song, but it isn't much different from the original version on 'Music has the Right'. They've added and subtracted a few layers here and there and the result is a version I'd say slightly edges out the original. The differences are really quite minimal though. Happy Cycling isn't one of my favorite songs of theirs. It rambles on a bit too long before finally collecting itself at the end. In any case, this version is identical to the one on 'Music has the Right'. Olson [Version 3] is where this EP earns its salt. The original was a really pretty 1 1/2 minute lead-in, which had been streched out by a minute and fleshed out into an actual song. It's easily the best track of the three, since it's essentially been reworked into a whole new piece.
If you have 'Music the Right to Children' you're basically spending $12 for a Olson ver 3 and a slightly better version of Aquarius. If you don't have it, spending a couple more bucks on MHTRTC will net you a version of every song on this EP plus 15 more tracks.
Tricky........2005-08-31
Aquarius almost(almost!) disappointed me. It seems to be reoughly the same thing (though this is to be expected from a Peel Session) having taken a step backwards and a step forwards. The added drums remove much of the ambiance of the piece, although they add their own "crunchy" flavor. A subtle reinterpretation of a great song, made for a different mood.
Olson is, always has been, and always will be incredible. They took a simple piece and completely changed the feeling. More Geogaddi like, calming and yet unnerving at the same time. Perhaps the best "new" thing on the CD.
Happy Cycling is the reason Olson is only the best "new" thing on the CD. It's one of the best things BoC has ever made,but if you've listened to Music has the Right, which most who buy this album will have, it won't seem new. It's the same thing.
XYZ, not listed on the tracklisting on Amazon for whatever reason, doesn't sound like you'd expect BoC to sound like. Very progressive, very drummy. Quite good. Worth a listen.
If you like BoC at all you should grab it. It has a little bit of everything they do.
A complete masterpiece. The greatest Peel session ever........2004-11-27
Worth more then you might think.......2003-08-28
You may not think it's worth it, but this is a really special record.
ok, this is a single with 3 tracks:
-Aquarius - a different and MUCH better version then on 'Music has the Right...'
-Happy Cycling - already on the american release of 'Music has the Right...'
-Olsen - see Aquarius. Almost a completely different track. Extremely beautiful.
The best thing they've yet done.......2002-05-28
VERY recommended.

This is probably my favorite SLITS record.......2006-03-06
That's not the case w/ the SLITS. When I heard this record it took me places musically that the SLITS had never been before, certainly as a complete record.
The Cut first album is quite something. Course, that's assuming yer into the sound these gals made. It's not your usual stuff, punk or otherwise. Sure, they existed right in the fermament of the late 70's punk scene. But they carved out a musical place that is still only theirs.
This is an invaluable release because the SLITS released so few records. I'd recommend it in a heart beat, though I'd caution you to listen to those amazon 'listen' buttons first cuz this is not automatically going to be the group you just dig. We gotta find out if yer adventrous musically or not first. If you can get into their groove, man, they did some hot stuff and here's where they really get into it most. chrisbct@hotmail.com
