Comments

• Ken Garner's The Peel Sessions (p.218) also lists plays for side 2 of the Spirit LP Future Games (A Magical Kahauna Dream) and the Stranglers' 'Peaches.'
• The information given out by Peel about the Roxy Music session differs from that listed on p.325 of The Peel Sessions: JP claims it was their first and that the producer was John Walters (Ken Garner lists Mike Franks). Evidence suggest that JP had his facts wrong, though and that Ken Garner's infos are correct.

(JP: '...here at Radio 1, came a couple of weeks after I'd seen them play support to Genesis at the Hobbit's Garden in Wimbledon. As recorded by John Walters in glorious mono on July 18 1972, and to give you an idea of where this session fits historically, alongside this first little track is a message reading, "Forthcoming A side."') 1 3
