Notes by the uploader:

Comprised here are all BBC sessions of Patto as collected by DIME member rhoudaille over several years. It has a few recordings missing but I wanted to leave his collection unaltered. By the way, this was rhoudaille's first upload here...a great way to start things!

Nothing on out of this collection has been used on commercial releases, and there are definitely no plans to release any of this material in the near future.

Following are rhoudaille's original notes, with updated links at the end:

I have compiled all the BBC recordings of PATTO that I have, which span over multiple sources,

so please excuse a clear "source" lineage.

There is a PATTO BBC Sessions bootleg, LIFE AFTER DEATH, which is basically included here;

however, I have better quality copies of some of those tracks so I decided to make this

compilation to present a chronological and best possible sounding collection of this rare material.

It is pretty complete too! Only 6 tracks missing... I know they're out there! Any one got 'em? Let us know! Additional information alongside the tracklisting.
