In April 2006, Robyn Hitchcock and Hux Records released "This Is The BBC", a collection of BBC sessions Robyn and company did for Andy Kershaw and Mark Radcliffe in the 1990s. Robyn was also making the rounds of American radio stations back then, including some nationwide syndicated radio programs. This torrent is a collection of some unreleased performances from these American radio programs, sourced from Pre-FM discs (which were then saved to HiFi vhs). One might think of this as a sort of American complement to the "This Is The BBC" album; "This Is The USA", if you will.
