- Comments
- More of the year's best sessions and the second part of the 1985 Festive Fifty.
- Peel had apparently been to the Radio One Christmas party that day, and ended up talking with Walters.
- Claims he might well have voted for The Vibes track himself.
- Says that ‘Gut Of The Quantifier’ is his own favorite from ‘This Nation’s Saving Grace’.
- File 7 contains only the F50 tracks with no links but of arguably better quality. File 8 too for session tracks.
