 * Comments
 * Before airing the first session track from Camera Obscura, Peel muses aloud: "I always wonder you know when bands have their first session on this programme whether they all sit in listening to the radio, or whether they're all dead blase about it and just go to the pub."
 * In response, Stuart Murdoch of Belle and Sebastian later emails the show to inform Peel that Camera Obscura are with him and listening to the show.
 * A young listener writes in and requests a record with a good drum solo. Peel recommends a track by Sandy Nelson called "Civilization", and says he'll try and put it in the show next week. Sadly he was unable to find it, but the track does crop up in a later programme, namely 06 April 2004.

Session
No known commercial release.
 * Camera Obscura #1. First airing of debut session.

 * (JP: 'Since I stopped playing Ronnie Ronalde records a week or so ago because I thought I'd played you enough for the time being although there is a Christmas LP and tracks from that may crop up when the time is more appropriate. I've been trying to think of somebody else roughly from that same sort of era whose tunes I could play you because I know from the emails that people are quite interested in what Ronnie Ronalde was doing and I was very pleased to hear it again myself. So I thought I'd be grotesquely self-indulgent and play you one or two tracks by my dad's favourite artist, who is a piano player called Charlie Kunz.')
