- Comments
- A very tight show, mainly remarkable for JP repeating the session by Th' Faith Healers, who had by this time split up (one member going on to Quickspace, an early incarnation of which is also played); John looking forward to a gig in Bristol; for him not playing a single track by the Fall, or one at the wrong speed; and for featuring tracks by Solar Race and the Bluetones that would later turn up in that year's Festive Fifty.
- After the previous Saturday's show, the John Peel Roadshow drove "like a maniac - no, at legal speeds" to Scunthorpe Baths Hall to play records - "really the most expensive jukebox in town."
