Tracklisting[]

JP: "That was 'Masoko Tanga', which as you probably know is the Malaysian for 'burning rubber':"
JP: "Well, they sound like my kind of a band, I must say. There are one or two people obviously on the other side of the Atlantic who are doing things roughly right, but the big record companies? Well, what are they up to? On the page I've just turned to on the American trade paper that I've got in front of me there's a full-page ad on which is written, 'RCA Records is proud to announce a new recording agreement with John Denver'. Oh boy."
  • Lenny White: Twelve Bars From Mars (LP - Streamline) Elektra
  • File a ends in the middle of the song above.
  • John Cooper Clarke: I Married A Monster From Outer Space (session)
JP: "And was DLT the result of their loathsome union?"
  • Pere Ubu: Thriller (LP - Dub Housing) Chrysalis
JP: "Amazing to consider that they're on the same label as Leo Sayer."

  • The recording suffers from background interference.
  • The Peel recording stops suddenly, mid-track. The hand-written track listing enclosed with the tape states, "+ 1/2 tape of rubbish". Indeed, what follows can best be described as instrumental pop-funk muzak.
