== Tracklisting ==
*File 2 begins
*Augustus Pablo: King Tubby Meets The Rockers
:(JP: (talking about session tapes) '...tapes were sent back and reused for something like Gardener's Question Time, which are now kept forever in steel-lined cases in a mineshaft somewhere in the Home Counties. But the Bonzo sessions, as I say, went the way of all flesh. They did a wonderful thing called 'The Craig Torso Show', which I should very much like to have on tape. But we have a session from them, from 1969.')
*File 1 begins
*Bonzo Dog Band: Monster Mash (Peel Session)
:(JP: 'The original, of course, by Bobby Boris Pickett, and as a little sidelight, Paul Gambaccini once phoned Bobby Boris Pickett from our house, and phoned him in New York. It took us some time to recover the money, but that's not the point I was going to make. He was making notes about his phone conversation, and Gambaccini has such a heavy hand that you can still read most of his notes in our kitchen table. Thanks a lot for that, Paul.')
*Jolly Two: Railroad Stomp
:(JP: 'I lived for four years in Dallas Texas. Interesting place it was, too, still is, I suppose, and one of the artistes that I used to see fairly regularly in Dallas was Roy Orbison...very wonderful he was, too.)
*Roy Orbison: Running Scared
:(JP: 'And now a comment from our industrial correspondent.')
*(Recording of news reader who valiantly tries to pronounce 'comment'...and fails.)
*Hughie Green: Stand Up And Be Counted (patriotic monologue with music, written in response to the economic crisis - the Labour government seeking a loan from the International Monetary Fund - in 1976)
*Handel: Zadok the Priest (Coronation of King George VI)
*Bonzo Dog Band: Sofa Head (Peel Session) This hilarious song includes a silence deliberately written in to challenge the BBC's emergency tape, and a parody of the Plastic Ono Band's 'Give Peace A Chance', apparently substituting 'booze', which prompts Peel to say, 'I wasn't a drinking man then, all that changed fairly rapidly.'
*(BBC Archive recording of a man who attempted to persuade Hitler not to start the Second World War by getting him interested in collecting cigarette cards)
*Noël Coward: Could You Please Oblige Us With A Bren Gun
*Bonzo Dog Band: Tent (Peel Session)
*File 3 cuts in
*(Recording of an unhelpful secretary from the BBC Archives)
*Protex: 'Don't Ring Me Up (7 inch)' (Good Vibrations)
*Peter Warlock: He That Will An Alehouse Keep [LP - Merry-Go-Down (Songs, Catches And Poems, Sociable, Amorous And Bibulous)] Pearl
*Bonzo Dog Band: We're Gonna Bring It On Home (Peel Session) (cuts out before end in recording #1)
*(Multiple trailer attempts for Walters' Weekly, resuming next week)
*File 2 cuts out
*Christopher Dearnley: Hornpipe (LP - Ceremonial Music for Organ) Oxford University Press
*Files 1 and 3 end
