Comments
  • The 400 Box recording of this show is extremely short and includes one track that seems to have been added from a vinyl copy:
  • Flying Lizards: 'Russia (LP-The Flying Lizards)' (Virgin)
  • The version from BH003 of the Hinton Box, although slightly distorted, is of better quality and includes more of the show (albeit with edited Peel links). These tracks are marked with a §.

Tracklisting

(JP: 'This is a hard programme, you know, and it's only been going for four...) §

File a begins here

(JP: 'Bet some of you reckoned it was going to be the Buddy Holly song.')
(JP (after playing opening at wrong speed): 'A suitably depressing beginning, considering the subject matter. (chuckles) Did I get out of that alright, or did I get out of that alright?')
(JP (following explosive ending to previous track: 'Well, that's East Anglia gone. I think we should refuse to play table tennis with them myself.')

File a (show recording) ends here

(JP: 'So you're going to end it like that, are you? You teasers!') §
(JP: 'Saving the best until last.') §
