NICO BBC Sessions 1971 - Japanese Edition (2021 UK limited 4-track 12" EP in Gearbox Records Japanese Edition series, released to celebrate the launch of their Japanese office. Previously only available as a vinyl release on John Peel and Clive Selwood’s Strange Fruit label during a brief period in 1988, this four track vinyl EP was the first of two sessions Nico performed for John Peel. The music was recorded live for BBC Radio One’s Top Gear on 2nd February 1971 and broadcast the following week. This haunting session is Nico at the height of her creative powers as testified by those who saw her solo concerts in this period. Hi-gloss picture sleeve with Japanese insert and obi-strip.
