 * Comments
 * Full tracklisting from the PasB of the BBC Written Archives Centre.
 * Peel plays three tunes with names of tracks and artists with some kind of relation to air warfare: V-2 Schneider (David Bowie), V2 (name of the band) and F.U.2 (Last Resort). I presume the F.U.2. stands for Fuck You 2, rather than anything related to air reconnaissance or warfare.
 * Peel plays two tracks from British Lions' self titled album.
 * Peel plays three tracks from Dennis Brown's Wolf And Leopards album.
 * Peel plays two tracks from Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band's Trout Mask Replica album.
