; Name
*And Err That's A Bit Of The Label Too
; Station
*BBC Radio One
; YYYY-MM
*Nov 1987 - Apr 1988
*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 (just the odd intake of breath as he prepares to back announce...). The sound quality is excellent and so I may have used a HiFi VHS recorder for the original broadcast and then edited to cassette. There is a sort of theme to the tape; stuff that didn't fall into the generic indie category (but the Chills and JP Sartre Experience still snuck in there). The title comes from the John's oft repeated comment after playing a poor pressing of something, usually a reggae single.
*TDK AD-90
*Tracks 1-3 on Side A can be dated as 2 Nov 87 but I have no definitive date for the others, just that I finished it in Apr 88.
*I have some memories of making up the tape: the Neil Young track was played because Peel had listened to a cover version of it but decided no one could better the original; the Marlene Webber reggae track was released some time in the mid-seventies and Peel mentions it is a long time favourite; he says the Marxist Brothers track is spelt Emille even though they seem to be singing Emily. Tracks 3-7 on Side B are from a pre-recorded show when JP played music that wasn't from Britain or North America (two tracks from NZ, two from Japan and one from Southern Ireland). The John Chibadura song has the same title as a Bhundu Boys track but is a different song.
