  • "Hi there I'm John Peel the jeanagers (sic) friend. And this programme is for Mark and Vanessa of Bury who got married today and almost certainly won't be listening to the radio as a consequence. Quite rightly so to."
  • John has one or two problems pronouncing Gerogerigegege.
  • First two and a half hours or so of the show included on Files 1-4 which have been subsequently joined. New section from the SL Tapes adds a little more to the end of the show.

  • Bivouac: 'Drank' (Peel Session)
  • General TK: 'Warning (7 inch)' (Digital-B)
  • (JP: 'I'd better start the programme by congratulating Ipswich on going up into the First Division as champions of the Second Division. I've got mixed feelings about that because I've seen a lot of them this season and they're a good team and it's a nice place to go and watch football - no question about that - Portman Road, but I don't like the idea of the Premier League never have done, I don't suppose I ever will. So as I say, mixed feelings about it but obviously they're going to be extremely chuffed, no question about that.')

File d starts

Peel reveals that he discovered that day what 'Yo La Tengo' means; "It's something apparently that baseball players shout... it probably means something like, 'leave it, it's mine' I think, or 'my ball' or whatever."
(JP: 'Andy Kershaw, who has an A level in Spanish, phoned up to say Yo La Tengo actually means 'I've already got it', as in "don't go to Norwich, you'll get dysentery". "Yo la tengo".')
