Comments
  • File 1 has only start of the show.
  • File 2 is more likely to be from this show, as Peel plays four tracks from bands (Ultravox, Graham Parker And The Rumour, Thin Lizzy & Aerosmith) who are going to appear at the Reading Festival in a few days time. The Reading Festival took place in 1977 between 26-28 August. Also he plays a session track from the Jam, which is on this file.

Tracklisting[]

  • File 1
(JP: "On this rate, they had to make the Gillette Cup final a double header with the cup final I think. Number 18 in the charts at the moment the BBC Charts is The Jam. We got a session from them. We also got a session from Lone Star and among the records, we do some Lurkin, a bit of Motoring. We're going to hear 3 from Magma. We're going to hear the Who, a hint of Elmore James, Ry Cooder, Racing Stars[1], whole bunch of good folk really")
(JP: 'Now back to reality and 1977')
