Thank you!

A high-quality BBC sessions compilation is well overdue. Years ago I spent a long time diligently collecting the best of each version only to find that there's no good versions of Wonderful Woman (Jensen) out there. I nagged the BBC to re-broadcast it but evidently, my powers of persuasion are ineffective at the Big British Castle.
 
A friendly hello and a kind thanks!
 
Sorry for the probably obvious uestion, but does Hatful of Hollow + this upload = all the BBC Session stuff in as high quality available?
 
DavidA's research on the matter a while back (which some sites based their views of 'best' on). May be in need of an update, but this started on ST years ago and has shaped thinking since.:

FWD.
 
Early this morning on Radio 6 the strangest version of "You just havnt heard it yet baby" I have never heard. I thought they implied it was a session. It was after the trojan stuff at some point.

It seemed like Morrissey singing with a lot of backing vocals every so often and different guitar too. It wasn't like a version I've ever heard. I don't think it's as good as the regular version but I was a bit open mouthed when it just came on the radio. What is it?
