A 4CD/1DVD set - presented in a deluxe hardback book package - comprising live performances, BBC TV footage and rare archival material. Few bands have left as distinct a mark on the musical landscape as Horslips. Emerging in the early 1970s, the 'Celtic Rock' pioneers drew from Irish traditional music and British/American rock, crafting a sound that was both timeless and radical. The BBC captured the band in the 1970s and again during their unexpected Indian summer return in the 2010s. At The BBC gathers these incredible recordings - spanning nearly 50 years - into one definitive collection. The book includes rare photographs and extensive liner notes by band biographer Mark Cunningham, legendary BBC producer Jeff Griffin and curator Colin Harper. The mastering is shared by Eroc in Germany and band associate Cormac O'Kane who mastered the the acclaimed 2023 Horslips box set More Than You Can Chew. Disc 1 covers 1973-74, landmark years in which Horslips brought their unique musical fusions to the airwaves and concert halls of Britain. Included are performances from Radio 1's In Concert, The Old Grey Whistle Test, Radio 1's Sounds of the 70s, 2nd House (BBC 2) and Radio 1's John Peel Show, showcasing the group in full flight, brimming with invention and zeal. By 1979, fresh from the inevitable hard slog of trying to conquer America, Horslips returned to Radio 1's In Concert with a set that captured their ability to fit in with the times and the power of their live
