Yeah, the Peel Session version is pretty embryonic. Goes out with a whimper when it peaks at the climax of the recorded version.

Surprised that The Verve #2 were included in the whole Britpop tale they've been weaving this week - thought they were sticking to the 1993-'96 kinda received wisdom version of the story.

I think they said at one point they were bracketing it from the death of Kurt Cobain to the death of Princess Diana, so that includes 1997, though it's all a bit random. Paul Weller is not exactly Britpop, just because he might have released a record in the right time period and been an alternative type.

Well the BBC4 thing was really good! Lots of Pulp, Jarvis presenting TOTP too.

I've missed most of the britpop programmes, much to my chagrin. If anybody has ripped any of them please think about sharing. I wanted to listen to them all.

That was nice. Good old Nick. He seems to have a bit more swagger/confidence when interviewed compared to the rest of them, certainly since the reunion (not that any of them have done much press in that time). Might be down to having teenage kids, (they'll tear your insides out).

For those of us who don't have access to the BBC iPlayer (I live in the US) did anyone rip these at all or are they available to listen to them again anywhere?

Thanks much in advance!

Programmes only stay on the iplayer for 7 days, even for those of us in the UK, for copyright reasons.

Ah! But it seems the BBC have saved this but as a clip - they do that sometimes with stuff  which a) they think is interesting and b) only contains their own copyright material i.e. no music and so on:

It's become so hard to download iplayer stuff since Radio Downloader was asked to 'cease and desist'. I think the only way to do it now is to listen to it and capture the stream in real time. I'm sorry but I simply don't have the time to do that.
