Comments
  • Peel mentions his technical man saying that the 10,000 Maniacs track Maddox Table sound like REM and threatens to box him in whilst the Propaganda track is playing, despite JP playing the Golden Palominos track earlier on the show, which features vocals from Michael Stipe of REM.
  • Peel plays Propaganda's Sorry For Laughing, which was originally done by Josef K, which he also plays.
  • Peel mentions his lowest point over the weekend was draining the pipe and his highest was a carnival at Stowmarket.
  • Peel plays a track from Fairport Convention, whose album Liege & Lief was produced by Joe Boyd, who produced 10,000 Maniacs latest LP.
  • He mentions that the 10,000 Maniacs track Just As The Tide Was A'Flowin' is his favourite session track by them. The song was previously recorded - twice - by Shirley Collins, the first version appearing on the 1968 LP Power Of The True Love Knot, also produced by Joe Boyd.
  • Audio taken from a haul of 1500 mixed edited radio show tapes, purchased from a Scottish collector by a group including Peel Mailing List member Haze.
