Morning folks,

first of all thanks a lot for your hard work on this Wiki, especially to Steve on my old Peel tapes: I'm willing to have a small bet that you are about to give up right now though because of the lack of information available on the yodelling stuff being featured on Peel 075, right Steve?

Great that Eddie was able to provide information about the signature tunes and thus improve the BFBS entry, speaking of which I have one small remark though: you shouldn't over-estimate what Peel said at the start of Peel 005: there never were "special request editions" per se on BFBS, what happened in fact was that he would "collect" requests for a few weeks, due to various reasons. Mostly because he simply forgot the bag with the requested records he had picked at home and/or he didn't find the time to search his shelves from one programme to the next. This would lead to the fact that occasionally one programme had more requests than the next one .... but this was never intentional.

Hope this helps a bit.

Cheers,

Dirk
