  • The final part of Peel's twin charts, one an All-Time (AT) and the other for 1982 only (FF). Until recently, only the chart rundown was available. However, from early February 2010, a new recording became available, including a couple of tracks from the session tracks and records portion of the show, as well as the main intro. More recent shares mean that only 8 minutes are missing
  • Tracks marked ยง on Hinton Box file.
