; Name
*The Peel Sessions Volume 4
; Station
*BBC Radio One
; YYYY-MM
*1984 - July/August
*A cassette compilation from the collection of Peel Group member mr_maudlin, recorded from the BBC Radio 1 John Peel Show but with no Peel links. These are tape to tape recordings using a Sony 'separates' cassette deck and midi system from a fairly good FM signal.
*Digitized: Technics RS-AZ7 (Dolby off) > Edirol UA-1EX sound card (24bit) > Audacity 44.1khz exported as 16bit PCM> iTunes mp3 237kbps (VBR)
*TDK SA60
*A bit of an odd tape this one. It has repeat sessions from Frankie Goes To Hollywood and Wah! Heat and 3 tracks not from Peel at all, but from a show called Saturday Live and featuring Thomas Leer playing a set. I can't remember the reasons why the old sessions were being repeated - were they both having chart success at the time, with Two Tribes and The Story Of The Blues respectively? I do remember recording the Thomas Leer set at work on a Saturday afternoon (the sound quality suffers a bit and it is in mono). The Wah! Heat session tracks have no gap between songs suggesting they were played as a block of four. (edit: Frankie had the top two chart singles in the summer of 1984, but The Story of the Blues was a hit in early 1983.)
*There are some recording notes and dates on the inlay card: 1-4 copied to tape 7th July; 5-6 copied to tape 22nd July (likely to be the same tracks as on The Peel Tapes Vol.2); 7-9 copied to tape 29th July (mono); 10-12 broadcast 7th Aug copied to tape 12th Aug; 13-16 broadcast and copied to tape 13th Aug; 17 broadcast 14th Aug copied to tape 15th Aug
