- Comments
- Peel reckons that Pat Nevin probably doesn't listen much of his radio shows since he stopped playing Cocteau Twins records that much.
- Peel mentions miscalculating his last night show which had 10 minutes less of music, but he doesn't remember what two additional tracks he played to compensate it. He goes on to say that one of the tracks may be from the Tar Babies, which he plays on the show. According to the 12 October 1987 show Peel never played the Tar Babies on the programme, but did try to play the Wedding Present track twice from that date.
- Peel says that Phil Everly's Star Spangled Springer LP has one of the worst record sleeves in recorded history. He goes on to say that he bought the LP because Duane Eddy produced it and wanted to hear his guitar playing, but couldn't find it until the last track called Snowflake Bombardier.
- Peel plays a sequence of six tracks from artists on the Shadowline label, who are based in the Netherlands.
- Peel plays a track from the only compact disc featured on the programme by the Wedding Present called George Best. He revealed that he first time played the compact disc on his show last night, which was from the group's album.
- Peel plays the session version of Transmaniacon MC by the Walking Seeds before playing the original version by the Blue Öyster Cult.
