A huge thanks to everyone recording, storing, and uploading all the clips of the band.
I kept finding myself listening to certain live versions over and over again, so I started this channel as a small project; I will keep making live album compilations of Ben Howard until they will release one themselves (Ally Pally please). I will make a live album for each Ben Howard album & EP to date, as well as some fun bonus content such as best alternative / solo versions. Stay tuned!
Notes: I tried to make a list of all the best versions of each song, while incorporating some of the best singles from the album's era. I wanted to keep Murmurations as the outro song, so I put the singles within the album at where I believe they fit the narrative the best.
Very interested to hear your opinion about which versions I missed! And also let me know how you would have re-ordered the album, haha.
Cheers

Damn this version of Towing the Line is beautiful, how had I never heard it before. This is definetly one of my favourite albums

[@pissheadman]

Couldn’t agree more. Absolutely full of emotion. Matches the song perfect.

[@bjrn-olleolle3141]

The live versions are so emotional captivating. I'm blessed to see them June 30.

[@benhowardlive]

[@Barondogboy]

[@Tyr7673]

Thank you ! yeah same here with the live stuff we are mesmerized by this gathering a blaze of feather we found are tribe the music led us back.....watched and listened to your play list it is perfect just what we needed to lift our ...spirit!

[@benhowardlive]

Haha loving the puns! Glad to hear you are enjoying the playlist :)

[@saschakuhness6731]

Brilliant stuff man, thanks a lot!

[@benhowardlive]

Very nice to hear

[@MarkusSommerOfficial]

Oh boy, i'm really excited to find this. Some of the recent live-versions gave me the feling that the band has a whole new quality to them on stage. It feels very late-shuffled, as if every single part of it was a little late and i freaking love it. towing the line in stuttgart is a good example

[@benhowardlive]

I feel the same way! I love how they reinvent songs and somehow make them even better. There will be much more of that on the channel :)

[@RhondaHallahan-qj2uf]

❤ben

[@ArgonautsMusicalTravellings]

Wow that version of AFN took me by surprise! Such a shame he hardly ever plays it 😢

[@blingclem]

I would've gone with Splendour in the Grass for Murmurations for the better quality but great nonetheless. A pleasure, thank you!!

[@mikkilee-ry2te]

yeeeeees

[@GaleOfPeril]

Would prob have been better to include the BBC Introducing variation of AFN 👉👈

[@benhowardlive]

I can't believe I missed that one. You're completely right!

[@GaleOfPeril]

@@benhowardlive no prob, I forget that one exists as well 😜

[@benhowardlive]

@@GaleOfPeril I just found out tobacco docks equals BBC introducing haha but I have the recording with slightly worse sound quality.. 😂 fake fan

[@GaleOfPeril]

@@benhowardlive I didn’t know that 1st part 😳 The last bit is correct though, that BBC Introducing recording is from the official Radio 2 broadcast of the gig

[@RhondaHallahan-qj2uf]

Seems like I've missed out on a lot of things,how do you find the time to be on here,❤ happy place,do ya like honey. I write songs feel like a listen some time❤

[@Tyr7673]
