Comments
  • File 2 has an incomplete show covering an hour of the programme.
  • Peel plays a couple of tracks from New Order's Low-Life LP.
  • Peel mentions that an ethnic people from Nicaragua who are also members of the band Dimensión Costeña have nearly all Scottish surnames but he doubts this as none of them are called "Dalglish".
  • Observes that the Captain Beefheart track still sounds better than most stuff 13 years later (as indeed it still does 37 years later..)
  • Peel plays a track by singer-actress Agnes Bernelle at the wrong speed, before correcting it. Its original German-language lyrics were by writer Joachim Ringelnatz (1883-1934), whose works were banned by the Nazis. She sings an English version, with the title translated as "Seaman's Pub", and is accompanied by the 3 Mustaphas 3.
