 * Comments
 * Start of show: 'Hi, John Peel here, the DJ with the filmstar looks.' Peel starts with a very long track indeed (but see note below) and announces a competition to win Strange Fruit cassettes of Peel Sessions: the listener is expected to write down the first and last records played in every programme of that week.
 * John apologises for speaking through his nose: he had a cold over the weekend, with 'lots of phlegm.'

Sessions

 * Great Leap Forward, #1. Recorded 1987-05-24.
 * Big Flame, #4 (repeat). Recorded 1986-05-04.

Tracklisting

 * Neil Young, 'Cortez The Killer' (this appears to have been edited into the tape: the version Peel claims to have played was from the 1975 LP 'Zuma', a studio recording, but this version is live and three times longer!)
