Comments
  • Peel mentions seeing A Witness and the Swans in Nottingham on Thursday night and wrote about it in a Sunday newspaper.
  • Peel says that his first 17 years of life was spent living in Wirral.
  • Peel mentioned that he lived in Texas for 4 years and his favourite drink there was RC Cola, that Andy Kershaw brought back when visiting America, which he and him drank together at Peel Acres. Peel went on to say that it still tasted good and that it reminded him of a record that he used to play on Kat's Karavan from Brother Dave Gardner, which he plays on the programme.

(JP: 'By curious coincidence the last title from the Jasmine Minks is also I Don't Know.')
