My favorite of these was the Velocity Girl session.[0]

Recommended for fans of shoegaze, dreampop, etc.

Edit: Just noticed that list doesn't include the VG session. You can listen to it on YouTube:

I have this on a CD somewhere - there was a "Subpop John Peel sessions"[1] CD released in the 90's that had Mudhoney (missing from this archive), Velocity Girl, Seaweed, Pond, Tad and Codeine.

I don't see This Mortal Coil being mentioned either; and can't help but mention it here , so it won't get lost

Oh hey - forgot about these guys. Nice find!
Maybe add this link to that site's comments and perhaps it will get added.
A year before their minor hit, "I Can't Stop Smiling'.
