2007 two CD set from the recently-disbanded British Pop-Rock outfit best known for their gorgeous melodies and witty wordplay. Vocalist Paul Heaton and drummer Dave Hemmingway, fresh from their stint as one-half of the Housemartins, hooked up with guitarist David Rotheray and other mates and formed The Beautiful South in 1989. Over the next 18 years, the band was more successful than any of them could have imagined. This double disc collection contains stunning acoustic and blistering live performances of some of their most popular songs including  'Song For Whoever', 'You Keep It All In',  'A Little Time',  'Perfect 10' and 'Everybody's Talkin', all recorded in the under-the gun atmosphere of the BBC's studios. Universal. 2007.
