*1999-03-30
;Comments
* Show kicks off in middle of Add N to (X) track; appears first 10 minutes or so missing. NOTE: the show lengths were in fact only 110 minutes so probably very little is actually missing. The first track is only just over 4 minutes long so we seem to have most of it.
* JP on good form whether feigning petulance at not receiving faxes, teasing the producer for rustling papers or forgetting to speak into the microphone.
* Discusses a visit to House of Commons where some MPs ask him what they should be listening to; JP recommends Melt Banana.
* Seems genuinely pleased to recall a recent Peel Acres show with Billy Bragg; sitting around chatting with Billy about music afterward by the fireside. They discussed the Louvin Brothers which he proceeds to play.
* Delightful reference to his daughter Florence continuing to astound him at every turn, most recently by singing Toussaint McCall around the house.
* Does his own Doo Wop bass line to The Fabulaires and it’s rather good.
