Hello Midnight Raver,
You may want to repost or edit this with some fuller information as some may have passed on it because it looks as if there are only four tracks available.
In effect there are five of the eight sessions Misty In Roots recorded for the BBC programme ‘the John Peel show’ between 1979 and 1986.
It’s unfortunate that the 2nd, 3rd and 4th session are missing that were recorded between 1979 and 1981 but despite that fact this is still a superb download, top quality roots music with 17 tracks in excellent quality from one of Britain’s greatest reggae bands easily the equal of the better known Aswad and Steel Pulse.
I first heard the June 5th session in 1979 live on the radio at the time and soon after bought the stunning debut album Live At the Counter Eurovision.
Thanks for such a great post and best wishes to you
