Comments

• Recording is of the last 25 minutes of the show. Somewhat surprising to hear a 1974 Tim Buckley track in the playlist, although JP admits it is only because the album had just been re-released.

(JP: 'I've never forgotten really the first time that I saw the Beat, at Aston University, one of the very best gigs ever. I invited them at the time to play their set through twice, and they did this, and both times it was wonderful. Just thinking about it sets me toes tapping.')
