  • Peel dedicates the programme to all the people he met in Ireland.
  • File a is a pause button tape, however tracks presumably in order played.
  • Files b/c are the first 8 minutes of the show.
  • File e is also a pause button tape, and it's not certain if it is from this show or 15 February 1979 but this one seems more likely

Tracklisting[]

  • Files b/c begin at start of show
JP: "Well, what a joy to be with you again. Actually, I managed to get home over the weekend for the first time in a week because previously I'd not been able to because of the snow, so on that account it was a good weekend. But better than that, I spent one day in Belfast and one day in Dublin and I don't exaggerate at all when I say they were two of the best days of my life. I'd not enjoyed myself so much for a very, very long time indeed."
