Derby Box

Background
This is a collection of 278 tapes mixing Peel shows and Friday Rock Shows from 1978 to 1983. They were recorded by Chris Holmes using high standard TDK, Hitachi and Sony cassettes (among others) on a hi-fi connected to an FM aerial and are of outstanding audio quality: he also prepared a spreadsheet listing the tapes. Responsibility for purchasing the tapes, ripping and sharing them with the Peel Mailing List has been taken on by member Rob F.

Some of the tapes were sold on ebay previous to this purchase: however, five of these are in the hands of a lister who is prepared to rip and share them on his own account. Many thanks to Chris and Rob for bringing such excellent recordings to public attention.
