The Nightlines Sessions

The Nightlines Sessions is a 1998 album by Rheostatics. The album was recorded as a live session for the final episode of CBC Radio Two's late night music program Nightlines, hosted by David Wisdom. It is a largely tossed-off and improvised affair, showing the band indulging their silly sides. It is an enjoyable diversion for fans, but even the band acknowledges that casual listeners will likely find it weird and unlistenable. The session aired on August 31, 1997. Ironically, few were listening, due to breaking news on CBC Radio One: the death of Diana, Princess of Wales. One song from the session, "Stolen Car", had appeared on an earlier Rheostatics album (1997's Double Live). Another song, "The Junction Foil Ball", was rerecorded for the later Night of the Shooting Stars.
