Peel sessions (and other sessions) that are better than the original

cliquester [Edit] [Delete] 12:15, 26 July '09

recently discovered the Sundays 1989 john peel session versions of tracks that would end up on READING, WRITING AND ARITHMETIC a full year later and the version of MY FINEST HOUR wipes the floor with the album version. a bit of a revelation as the track on the album was always a fave anyway. harder hitting drums, more fluid guitar, urgent breathless vocals, slightly unfinished lyrics... it's pretty amazing.

have you discovered any peel sessions (or indeed any radio sessions) that are better than the originals?
