; Comments
*Peel has a new bike, and has already suffered his first puncture.
*Says Kid Jensen’s shows have been getting really good, and he plays all the records Peel was planning to play – “most vexing.” JP finds out after programming the Bankrobbers followed by Bankrobber by the Clash that Jensen had done the same thing the previous week – “What can I say? Eclipsed again.”
*After the first session track from the Nightingales, plays five secondhand records he has just bought (for no more than 1.50 in total) in a row - "No particular reason, but just because it makes it nice to have a break from me, I suppose."
*JP manages to jump in at the false ending of Drowning Out The Big Jets by session band Action Pact, despite a warning note from producer Dale Griffin.
*Unusually for Peel, he plays music from a Broadway show - Jennifer Holliday's "And I Am I Telling You (I'm Not Going"), sung powerfully in deep soul style, from the musical Dreamgirls.
*Only around 7 minutes of show is now missing
