At the end of August we asked you to vote for three songs from any stage in BJH's career which haven't been played live for a long time, if ever, you would most like to hear John Lees' Barclay James Harvest perform live. Here are the results of the votes:
01 One Night (23 votes)
02 In My Life (18)
03 John Lennon's Guitar (16)
04 If Love Is King (15)
05 Guitar Blues (14)
06= In Memory Of The Martyrs (13)
06= Sperratus (13)
08 How Do You feel Now (12)
09= For Your Love (11)
09= Titles (11)
11= Lady Macbeth (10)
11= May Day (10)
11= See Me, See You (10)
14= Alone In the Night (9)
14= Blue John's Blues (9)
16= Fifties Child (8)
16= Paraiso Dos Cavalos (8)
16= Summer Soldier (8)
16= Vanessa Simmons (8)
20= Capricorn (7)
20= Dark Now My Sky (7)
20= For No One (7)
20= Mr. E (7)
20= The Closed Shop (7)
25= Back To Earth (6)
25= Forever Yesterday (6)
25= Love Is Like A Violin (6)
25= Medicine Man (6)
25= Mill Boys/Poor Boy Blues (6)
25= Polk Street Rag (6)
25= River Of Dreams (6)
25= Star Bright (6)
25= The Great 1974 Mining Disaster (6)
Many thanks to the 159 people who voted. The results have already been sent to the band and management, so we may get to hear one or two of
these in future live sets. Ultimately the band will decide what works and what doesn't, and which ones they would enjoy performing, but you've given them plenty to think about!

Radio Tymes LP and CD
----------------------------------------------------------
A new compilation album is out now, featuring rare radio broadcasts from the late 60s, amongst which is BJH's 1968 BBC session recording of "Night". The compiler has managed to track down off-air recordings of the original programmes, made by enthusiasts with reel-to-reel tape recorders, and has included snippets of comments from contemporary DJs, such as John Peel enthusing about BJH. The LP version of the album marks the debut appearance of "Night" on vinyl, although the recording (minus Peel's comments) did appear on the 2002 remastered CD of the band's debut album.
The album also includes rarities from The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Yardbirds, Deep Purple and more. The LP and CD are available direct from the record label's web site, at http://www.topsoundsrecords.co.uk, or you can order them through online retailers such as Spin CDs or Amazon.com.
