;Comments
*It's just Peel and producer Louise in the studio, as "the lads have taken the night off".
*Wiki contributor Dr_Mango is in the chat room and gets a mention.
*After playing the Amsterdam single, Peel comments: "In case you don't understand why it is that that record affects me so much, what I recommend you do is get hold of today's Guardian and the G2 part of it and turn to page 4, the right-hand column by Rogan Taylor. Read it and the last few lines of it - I was reading it this morning on the loo, actually, I shouldn't be telling you that but it's the truth - and I just burst into floods of tears. And if you read it, perhaps you'll understand and perhaps you'll just think, 'sentimental twaddle'. I don't know." (It appears that the Rogan Taylor piece referenced by Peel was a comment on Wayne Rooney's decision to sell serialisation rights of his life story to the Sun newspaper, and how this was received in Liverpool in the light of the newspaper's reporting of the Hillsborough disaster.)
*JP: "I once drove through Columbus, Ohio in the middle of the night you know. It was the birthplace of James Thurber and I was very excited to be there. I was so out of me head, I probably told you this before, I stopped at every other traffic light which is a risky policy anywhere really I would have thought. But I survived."
*The Smoke single was recently featured in an article in the Independent newspaper where Will Sergeant of Echo & The Bunnymen picked his best ten British psychedelic songs, prompting Peel to play it.
*Peel explains why he stopped correcting people's spelling: "I got a bollocking from my child bride who said it sounded really obnoxious when I corrected people's spelling. She's probably right because she usually is."
*He describes this evening's Pig's Big 78 as "one of the strangest ever".
*Peel says that while living in San Bernadino in California in the Sixties, he played a Muddy Waters track to visiting guitarist Buddy Reed, setting him on the path of a career playing the Blues.
