 * Comments
 * (K) ...and here at last is my favourite of my Peel show tapes: John on More Music Monday in January 1988 - the day when daytime DJs were under orders to talk much less, which they did not like - with the first session by Bob, and a repeat of the Wedding Present Ukrainian first session, plus loads of groovy records and segues - just listen to that segue from Bob to James Brown, wow!. And how about Jimmy Bo Horne's forgotten disco classic 'Spank'? Wonderful mix of indie, african, rap, house, oldies, reggae, RnB, everything. Like the lunchtime shows, Peel really sticks it to the daytime boys here as to how to put together what he rightly calls "a rockin' show".
 * Side 1 or part 1 is unedited, but I made two live edits, with finger on the pause button, in part 2, and I estimate about 20-22 minutes of this show and possibly 5 or 6 records are missing, all from the second half. One day I'll find out what is missing. For now, dig it!
