; Comments
*Available files cover all but around 15 minutes of the show, with most of the missing section from the beginning of the programme. Final file also features the start of the 30 July 1985 show.
*Session guests Men They Couldn't Hang have covered 'Where Have All The Flowers Gone?', possibly without realizing the song is not a favourite of JP, who suggests a version of Teenage Kicks might have been better.
* Peel notes that the Propaganda track was once in the Festive Fifty, “many years ago” (in fact, 1984).
* The Kahondo Style record has arrived with a letter from band member Kazuko Hohki (also of the Frank Chickens), who thanks Peel for his holiday postcard.
*Upcoming at the weekend is a five-hour Arena blues night on BBC-2 that will include John Walters interviewing BB King.
*The old Crazy Horse track is played as Peel feels it may be what the new wave of US bands he can’t quite come to terms with (“Andy Kershaw bands”) are trying to sound like.
* Trailed as a “band of militant Belgian gays”, à;GRUMH puzzle Uncle John with how their name should be pronounced.
