Dermot O'leary Presents The Saturday Sessions 2011

This is a slower version of the songs featured but is great chill out music, don't think its going to be like the live lounge radio 1 stuff because its alot more laid back style of music but i love it

The second volume of The Saturday Sessions makes for a very easy, pleasant listen. It is unlikely to change your life, but will provide it with a soundtrack many would enjoy.The tracks - some covers, some originals - are all played acoustically, often with only the sparse guitar based accompaniment. This gives the recordings a surprising degree of homogeneity - or 'sameyness' for those less enamoured by it. Stand out tracks are relatively few and far between, perhaps for that reason; 'Billie Jean' by the Civil Wars deserves special mention, however.A very listenable to album, then, which provides pleasing background music, in the best sense, for parties, reading or just getting on with relaxing.

I thought it was a really good CD, having listened to him on the radio. I have discovered some new bands by listening to this CD. I like the different versions of well know songs by trendy or new bands/ singers.

Have most of Dermot's Cd, great tunes and well put together, just wish he brought them out more often, I'm not one for buying loads of different full albums so this is great as I get the best tunes.

Bought as gift for husbands car he loves it plays all time. Travel music for when lose radio signal. Easy listening music.

Lots of tunes for your money on this interesting compilation. A huge variety of artists performing live in the BBC studios often choosing to sing tracks unusual to their normal repertoire. Well worth a listen.

I heard the track 'I've been losing you' as sung hauntingly by King Creosote (I quite liked the original, but this is so much better) looked it up on line and found that it could only be got by buying the complilation (shakes fist).... Anyway, kept listening to the sample on this site and took the plunge. Not every track is to my taste and I certainly prefer the 2nd Cd, but out of 40 tracks there's only about 3 I punch the mute/next button but there's at least a dozen tracks that I like very much, so for £6.99, it's good for the money. Have even gone back and got a king creosote cd :-)

I bought this for my mother as a birthday present and she now can't stop listening to it. SHe keeps it in the car for all journeys. Brilliant selection of songs and fantastic to hear live music
