Tracklisting

 * Wedding Present with Amelia Fletcher (Talulah Gosh): 'Getting Better (Compilation LP-Sgt. Pepper Knew My Father)' (New Musical Express)
 * (JP: 'One of the few bands, if not the only people, on the record to actually make the song sound as though it was written by them.')


 * Wedding Present: 'Nobody's Twisting Your Arm (12")' (Reception)
 * Duane Eddy And The Rebels: 'Peter Gunn (LP-Especially For You)' (Jamie)
 * (JP:: 'The very best record of all time, as far as I'm concerned. In case it sounded a bit scratchy to you, the reason for that is that it's a bit scratchy because I played it from the LP that I bought when it first came out and used to play it at home, and when it got to...the twangy guitar bit in the middle, I just turned it up, louder and louder and louder as it went on twanging. My dad used to go mad, banging on the wall, either that goes or I go. That's the reason why it sounds very scratchy, but particularly at that point.')


 * feedtime: 'Don't Like (LP-feedtime)' (Aberrant)
 * Sonic Youth: 'Within You, Without You (Compilation LP-Sgt. Pepper Knew My Father)' (New Musical Express)
