Katsumi Konishi “Are you scared to get happy”…when I first heard this line of ‘Hip Hip’ in my youth, I remember shivers up my spine all through the day. That’s how ‘Hip Hip’ became my special song, just like ‘Teenage Kicks’ meant for John Peel. It is hard to stop listening to this amazing radio session which captures fertile music taste of Hurrah!
Favorite track: Hip Hip (Jensen session).

sdg1962 Simply wonderful...Much better recording than other versions released in my opinion. Captures all the early promise of Hurrah ! Favorite track: Lonely Room (Jensen session).

Paul Dean Amazing to hear this session finally showcasing the band at the height of their jangle powers - beware the chorus to This boy will lodge itself in your head for a month once heard Favorite track: This Boy (Jensen session).
