- Comments
- Tracklisting compiled with help from Paul Bryant's Night Ride Playlists and Ken Garner's The Peel Sessions, which lists Harry Lund (full name Harald Are Lund) and Peel's Radio One colleague Mike Raven as additional studio guests. An additional fragment of the show has now come to light, although it is not currently available, as listed below.
- Show features the debut session by Peel discoveries Principal Edwards Magic Theatre. At this time he was very enthusiastic about them, both on air and in his columns for International Times and Disc & Music Echo, but gradually became disillusioned with the group. In later years he considered them something of an embarrassment and his initial positive impression a lapse of judgement.
