 * Comments
 * (Message by Eddie to Peel Newsgroup): Here's 32 minutes of a Peel show from 12th August 1981, featuring session tracks from Girls at our Best! and Ponderosa Glee Boys. Paul Morley guests, grumbling about the way the Peel show, and music in general, is heading. From my own tape, which I've been meaning to rip for ages now. There's 30 minutes from another show on the other side, which I'll upload when I've verified the date.
