- Starts off with a couple of classic reissues. The Velvelettes song was later featured in both the 1964 Peelenium and Peel's FabricLive.07.
- More Temple City Kazoo Orchestra (see also 20 October 1978. Peel: “Thank goodness that the old musical values have not been eroded entirely.”
- Some Chicken featured in John Peel's Record Box, with their previous single.
- Three more from the Wreckless Eric album, which JP had started playing a couple of days earlier, on 23 October 1978.
- States after the Japan track Sometimes I Feel So Low, "..despite having a bad back."
- Plays both sides of new Ultravox white vinyl 12" although mistakenly announces the second track (B side) as 'Dislocation' instead of 'Crossfade'. Corrects himself after track has finished, "..a mental blackout, no doubt, brought about by the shrapnel lodged in my frontal lobes after the Normandy landings.."
