To coincide with two sold-out shows at London\u2019s iconic 100 Club, Lenny Kaye (Patti Smith Group<\/strong>, original Nuggets<\/em> compiler), alongside Joe De Lorenzo (former The Damned<\/strong> tour manager), who co-promoted the London shows, assembled an all-star Nuggets Band and headed to BBC Maida Vale Studios to record a session for Marc Riley<\/strong> & Gideon Coe<\/strong> on BBC 6 Music<\/strong>. That electrifying session is now set for release as Lenny Kaye\u2019s Nuggets Live At The BBC<\/em>, arriving exclusively for Record Store Day as a limited edition 10\u201d vinyl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Released via Johnny Depp\u2019s<\/strong> In.2 records label, this four-track EP captures the spirit and legacy of the original Nuggets<\/em> era, brought to life by a powerhouse line-up: Nick Detroit (Rat Scabies\/The Damned), Dave Treganna (Sham 69, Lords of the New Church), Marty Love (Johnny Moped, Wingmen), Doctor Clive Jackson (Dr & The Medics), Greg Rice (Whiskey Town) and Jim Jones (Jim Jones All Stars, Thee Hypnotics).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recorded live on 4th April 2024 and broadcast shortly after on BBC 6 Music, the EP features: I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night<\/em> \/ My Little Red Book<\/em> \/ Little Bit O\u2019 Soul<\/em> \/ Gloria<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The release comes full circle with I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night<\/em>, famously the opening track on the groundbreaking 1972 compilation Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era<\/em>, curated by Kaye. That seminal collection, featuring artists such as the 13th Floor Elevators, The Electric Prunes, and The Seeds, is widely regarded as one of the most influential compilations of all time and helped define the term \u201cpunk rock\u201d in its earliest usage.<\/p>\n\n\n
