By 1966, Collins was one of the most famous folk singers in the world, generally covering songs written by others. By the time of this concert she'd switched from a purely acoustic sound to a folk-rock sound, so there was a small band backing her.
The sound quality is surprisingly great considering this is unreleased and from back in 1966. I only had to make two edits where there were minor glitches. I patched them using music from elsewhere in the same song. Those are the songs with "[Edit]" in their names.
The BBC show was fairly short, only about 28 minutes. So I looked around to see if there were any other TV or radio appearances from that time I could throw on as quasi-bonus tracks. I found two, from an appearance on the "Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour" in 1967. I stuck those on the end. Those are unreleased too.
You may notice I called this "BBC Sessions, Volume 1." I found another BBC concert she did in the 1970s. I plan on posting that soon.
This album is 35 minutes long, including the two Smothers Brothers extra songs.

The full video of this concert can be found on YouTube if you look hard. This cover is a screenshot taken from that. I then colorized it with the help of the Palette program.
Thank you.
