If you're a Belle & Sebastian fan, and have worn out your copy of their last studio release (2006's 'The Life Pursuit') in frustration at the lack of new material, worry not.

The Glasgow twee-merchants aren't about to release a new record just yet - but they are releasing a collection of BBC Sessions which were recorded for the station in 1996, 1997 and 2001.

The sessions cover the band's formative years, including versions of songs from their debut 'Tigermilk' to their fourth album 'Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like A Peasant', and will be released in November.

The release will also include a live recording of a Belfast gig from December 2001.
