Comments

• Incomplete show. Although the available recording appears to be from one show, starting from the handover from Andy Kershaw, there are edits, so the tracklisting below is in the correct order but may not be all of those played.
• Mentions that he heard Half Man Half Biscuit on a Radio 5 show and during it Peel (if he was listening) was requested to give the band another session. Says he is always happy to do that.
• Refers to seeing Shonen Knife live that week (see Gigography 1990s) and complains of a Melody Maker article on the band that didn't mention he'd been playing them since 1984.
