Comments
  • The last hour or so of the programme finds JP in a very urbane mood with not even a hint of the day on which it was broadcast.
  • The last four tracks on JLP002 and the first on JLP003 are either from an otherwise missing section of this show or the show from the previous evening.
  • It is not certain whether File 1 is from 14 February 1980, but there is certainty that it was broadcast during that month, where Peel was about to play Planxty's record after the Limps track. There are possibilities it may have been broadcast on 12 February 1980 after the Galactic Symposium song on that date or 13 February 1980.
