Radio 2 Piano Room - Season 2024 Episode 3 The Libertines Live performances from much-loved music stars, alongside the BBC Concert Orchestra, at the BBC's Maida Vale Studios.
Overview: The Libertines, about to release their first album in 9 years, perform live at Maida Vale with the BBC Concert Orchestra. It's now more than 20 years since the band first achieved critical and commercial success and gained a dedicated cult following. But despite some very long gaps in their activities, interest in The Libertines has never waned, and now Carl Barât, Pete Doherty, John Hassall and Gary Powell have returned with All Quiet on the Eastern Esplanade, recorded in Port Antonio, Jamaica and Margate, Kent. The Libertines Piano Room set features Don't Look Back Into The Sun, Shiver from the new album and their take on Arthur Lee and Love's 1967 classic, Alone Again Or.
