Post-Woodstock TYA released Ssssh their third studio record which remains the most successful of the band’s career ultimately reaching No.4 in the UK. They toured across Europe for the remainder of 1969 and it is during this period that the shows featured on this CD were recorded both for live radio broadcast.

Both these performances are released here for the first time in superb quality proving what an extraordinary and enticing group Ten Years After had become by this juncture.
