; Comments
*a) From John Peel - Altered Images 81 mixtape from Mark, and an especially valuable one as it proves Peel did play Duran Duran at some point. Mark comments: "Always relished the fact that Peel 'discovered' the Durans – so often he played bands that were later to break into the mainstream – this was special, although there is a touch of rancour in his voice in a link after The Original Mirrors (an Ian Broudie band) when he infers that Adam and the Ants thanked Peter Powell for 'discovering them'."
*b) Hinton Box file contains only one session track and a link.
