Amen Corner, live in session, in London from 1967 – 1969.

Between the package tours and recording commitments for Decca and later, Immediate, The Amen Corner would be regular visitors to the Paris Theatre and Aeolian Hall in London, homes to the BBC and their suitably equipped recording facility. These sessions once again highlight the band’s own preferences for cover material that would reflect their own tastes and thus offer a more genuine insight into the band. Together with revealing interviews with the light programming host (usually Brian Matthew) and a horde of previously unavailable recordings from a halcyon period in British pop music, a valuable light can be shone on an ultimately, hugely influential decade in British pop culture. London Calling proudly presents The Amen Corner live in session from London, 1967-1969. Professionally remastered original broadcast recordings with background liners and period photos.
