The Cranberries radio and television sessions

Add links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Throughout their career, The Cranberries recorded several radio and television sessions in the form of recording studio sessions, live studio sessions, and live audience sessions.

Recording Studio Sessions

[edit]

The Dave Fanning Sessions

[edit]

The Dave Fanning Sessions consist of recording studio sessions made available to young aspiring bands and artists. These sessions were subsequently played on The Dave Fanning Show on Irish-based radio RTÉ 2FM.

The 1991 Dave Fanning Session

[edit]

Produced by Jim Lockhart and engineered by Phil Cook, the 1991 session was recorded at RTÉ's Studio 8 on March 9, 1991.[1]
On May 19, 2010, RTÉ 2FM radio host Dan Hegarty played three tracks ("Dreams", "Uncertain", Reason") from the 1991 Dave Fanning Session, nearly 20 years after their first broadcast.[2] Hegarty aired "Reason" again a year later on March 17, 2011,[3] then "Dreams" on September 7, 2011 during a show broadcast from Limerick.[4]
The complete session was broadcast again on October 18, 2011 on Dan Hegarty's show.[5]
Track list[1]

  • "Dreams" (4:02)
  • "Uncertain" (3:20)
  • "Reason" (1:50)
  • "Put Me Down" (2:44)

The 1993 Dave Fanning Session

[edit]

In 1993,[6] the band recorded another Fanning Session. During an interview[6] at RTÉ 2FM, Fergal indicated that the band was recording a new version of "Wanted" from their debut album, Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? and three new songs ("False", "Like You Used To" and "The Icicle Melts"). Up to this date, "False" and "Like You Used To" remain commercially unreleased, while "The Icicle Melts" was re-recorded and released a year later on the band's second album, No Need to Argue. The complete session was broadcast again on 7 December 2011 on Dan Hegarty's Alternative to Sleep show (RTÉ 2FM).[7]
Track list

  • "The Icicle Melts" (3:04)
  • "Wanted" (1:58)
  • "Like You Used To" (2:27)
  • "False" (2:22)

It is unclear if another Dave Fanning Session took place, since information about the Cranberries’ Fanning Sessions remains scarce and sometimes contradictory in the fan community. In 2002, Zombieguide webmaster, Alex Kraus, received CD-Rs from the Cranberries’ drummer, Fergal Lawler, which contained some tracks identified as being from a 1990 Dave Fanning Session.[8] Since some of the information from those CD-Rs are now known to be inaccurate (e.g., the four 1991 Fanning Session tracks are identified as "Xeric Demos"), we cannot confirm the existence of a 1990 Dave Fanning Session. It possible that the information on those CD-R tracks was mixed up sometime between the original tape recording in the early 1990s and the CD transfer, a decade later.

The John Peel Session

[edit]

The Cranberries worked on a studio session for the John Peel show on BBC Radio 1. The session, produced by Dale Griffin and engineered by Nick Gomm, was recorded at Maida Vale 4 on January 16, 1992 and broadcast a month later, on February 16.[9] It featured four songs that were later re-recorded for the band's first album. The four tracks were broadcast again on the April 24, 1992 show. Recordings of the John Peel Session appeared on an unauthorized bootleg CD entitled Be With You.[citation needed]

Track list[9]

  • "Waltzing Back" (3:27)
  • "Linger" (3:20)
  • "Wanted" (2:05) (identified as "Want")
  • "I Will Always" (2:36)

The BBC Radio 1 Evening Session

[edit]

The Cranberries recorded a BBC Radio 1 Evening Session, which was broadcast on September 26, 1994. The recording session was produced by James Birtwistle. "I Can't Be With You" and "Empty" from that session were included on the "I Can't Be With You" single while "Zombie" was released on a promo cassette with British magazine Vox.[10][11] It is unclear if other tracks were recorded during that session.
