YOU ARE MY URUSEI YATSURA (BBC RADIO SESSIONS)

Collection of BBC recordings from the Scottish indie legends. So it's coming up for the 20th anniversary of the We Are Urusei Yatsura album, so what better time to look back at the broken Woolworths guitars, damaged eardrums and bleeding knuckles of Glasgow's lo-fi, Tokyo dreaming geek rock quartet! You could say it all began at the Glasgow Sound City event, when legendary BBC DJ John Peel came along to check out Urusei Yatsura at the 13th Note at the invitation of future Franz Ferdinand front-man Alex Kapranos. Liking the chaos that he saw, Peel invited the band to record a session for his show, asking live on air while guitarist and singer Graham Kemp was visiting the studio to talk about his "Kitten Frenzy" fanzine the next day.
