Broadcast Date[]

(DM) Side A is the last 20 mins of 22 August 1978 (repeat sessions from Alternative TV and the Lurkers). After that show ends there's the last track from the show from 31 August 1978 ("I Like It" - the Rezillos) ; Peel helpfully tells us that we've just heard a session from the Desperate Bicycles, with tomorrow night's sessions coming from the Skids and Penetration, which allows us to date it. After this commences the recording from 07 November 1978, which flips onto the other side of the tape after a couple of minutes. Phew!
