I had been anticipating this album for a long time ever since I heard it advertised on Radio 1 itself. To think we could purchase a whole load of different artists live performances on CD hadnt been heard of before. Simply brilliant idea, and a great way to beat the non-paying online downloaders.

Some of the perfomances are simply brilliant. Bands such as Coldplay, Snow Patrol and Keane are even better live than on your regular CD perfomance.

Though some are truly awful, bands such as Queens of the Stone Age and The Automatic simply bring this album back down to average.

The best thing radio one have done is limit the small and frankly poor bands and kept the so called major bands who are alot better. Oasis, Arctic Monkeys and Razorlight's performances easily oust that of Dizzee Rascal, Editors and Jamie Cullum who I simply skip every time.

Well done for radio one for puttin this together for us but not so well done for including some poor poor songs. Though many others may not share my view that these are actually poor.
