; Comments
* Full tracklisting from the PasB of the BBC Written Archives Centre.
* The PasB copy of this show on the microfilm was in a very bad condition. So bad, I can't identify the titles of some of John Esam's poetry. 
* This one-hour show broadcast between 8.15 and 9.15pm was one of Peel's "son of Night Ride" programs.
* Poetry comes from John Esam and studio guest is David Peel (1942-2017). Like JP, Peel wasn't his real surname. He was an American hippie musician and activist from New York, who had released an album called Have A Marijuana on Elektra. A few years later, he befriended John Lennon after the former Beatle had moved to New York.
* There is also a track from the first (double) LP by the Chicago Transit Authority, who became more famous after they changed their name to Chicago, as well as jazz from the Frank Ricotti Quartet, one of the contemporary British jazz groups featured in the Jazz Workshop programmes which followed Peel's show. In the 1980s, a group led by Ricotti provided the music for one of Peel's favourite TV drama series, The Beiderbecke Affair.
*In addition, the playlist includes some pre-war country blues from Kokomo Arnold and an obscure 1964 single by the Outlaws, featuring Ritchie Blackmore (later of Deep Purple) and Chas Hodges (who became half of Chas and Dave).
*There seems to be some discrepancy between the track listing order of the BBC Written Archives Centre PasB and Tim Joseph's tracklisting of the show as well as the titles of John Esam's poems. Tim Joseph's track listing includes an Al Kooper track with question marks, which is not present in the BBC Written Archives Centre PasB. Like some other shows, the PasB has grouped the poems together rather than in the order as broadcast.
