- This session by Joseph Hill’s Culture was recorded in December 1982 at the BBC Maida Vale studios for the John Peel radio 1 programme and is one of my favorite Peel sessions. Furthermore it is also one of the all time great Peel sessions, in John Peels own opinion!
I was once told that John Peel wept when he first heard the results on the tapes that Dale Griffin had handed to him a few days before the session was meant to be aired in January 1983. John Peels opinion on Culture is written in burgundy red bold towards the bottom of this KYPP post.

The versions of the two newer tracks ‘Lion Rock’ and ‘Armageddon’ that Culture recorded for the BBC actually eclipse the quality of the versions that had previously been recorded at Aquarius studios in Kingston and both released on the ‘Lion Rock’ album on the Sonic Sounds record label in 1982. This was no mean feat as Culture's ‘Lion Rock’ album is an immense work in itself!
'Too Long In Slavery' and Two Sevens Clash' were older songs from Culture's past. 1976 and 1977.
The version of 'Lion Rock' recorded at Maida Vale for the John Peel session is just perfect. I cannot stress this enough!
Tracklisting:
Lion Rock
Armageddon
Too Long In Slavery
Two Sevens Clash
When faith is as strong as this, the music comes forth joyfully and majestically.
Remember this got me bang into Culture and roots reggae
Among all the John Sessions' I have ever listened to,this is my all time best from any artist!
Joy from his grave lived on.thanks for the inspiration.we're must be ready and prepared to have that decisive amagadeon war
Radio magic. Still remember that JP show.
This was a fabulous session. Love it. The two people who gave this a thumbs down are just wrong, and have plaster for a soul.

Fabulous session from Culture. One of John Peel's personal favourites, I believe. Anyway I'm off for a wee dance. Merry Xmas and thanks for putting this up, my cassette copy is just about worn out :)
If I died and went to heaven and as I was approaching the pearly gates I realized could hear the sound of this session growing ever louder I wouldn't be in the least surprised

Great!
🎶 time for the Armagideon please go tell it on the mountain top 🎶 relevant now as was then >>> ♥️💛💚
The Lion Rock album was not a Culture Lp but rather a Joseph Hill solo outing. And IMO not up to the classic trio stuff. But this Peel session is excellent, really.
