The Radio One Sessions is a compilation of performances by the Northern Irish punk band Stiff Little Fingers for BBC Radio, recorded between 1980 and 1982. Tracks 1–4 were recorded for the Mike Read show on Feb 1, 1980. Tracks 5–8 were recorded for the Mike Read show in April 1981. Tracks 9–12 were recorded for the David "Kid" Jensen show on Nov 19, 1981. Tracks 13–16 were for Kid Jensen again in September 1982. The four sessions encompass songs from all four of the band's albums before they split up in 1983, although they reformed four years later.
