no-one knows (apart from Sui, who wrote all the songs) but won't admit it
Die "beste Show ever" (c) British Sea Power) beinhaltete fliegende Zwiebeln, einen Plüsch-Pferdekopf, Walzer-tanzende Fans und Musiker, das Besteigen der Boxen, das unabsichtliche Zerstören der Speaker (und einer Gitarre und einem Keyboard).

Yeah, it would be nice to know if they/it actually exist(s), let alone what was allegedly recorded.

Dont think anyone in the know is prepared to let on though, unfortunately.

I've been listening to a batch of songs recently that all sound like cousins to the Evangeline Sessions. To my playlist I added Over in the Corner and Gale Warnings. Even Tugboat and The Land Beyond are even a good fit. They sound so beautiful and ethereal. It's another side of BSP I really love.

I wish I knew more about these sessions.

Why are they kept so mysterious? To me, the two I've heard are among my favourite Sea Power songs, especially 13 Ways To Disappear.

because they aren't by bsp at all- just Sui in his bathroom with a paper and comb combo.
"Even if I saw these names grouped together completely out of context away from here... lets say a set of albums sitting together in a charity shop - I would immediately think of you and no other!"

Not to my knowledge Gary. In fact, until I saw your thread-bounce, I thought I'd dreamt the entire thing.

When I Go Out and 13 ways are the only thing I have marked as Evangeline.
Heady times.

They were all Open Season era, weren't they?

What we need is a massive box set of said album and all its associated gubbins, which will hopefully reveal all. And if it's anything like the Decline i.e. 12th anniversary, set your watches for April 2017.

Or not, because that would be almost bordering on logical and they don't do that do they? :)
And I asked, "Are you dreaming about a crow?"
And there she was....
