*"Hello again, interesting and attractive young people, it's another John Peel's Music On BFBS."
*Peel confesses to (probably) having stolen the Upsetters single (in 1971) from another DJ: apparently, such records were sent to people who would never play them.

:(JP: 'This I know nothing about at all, I mean, there's less information I think than I've ever had on any record: all it's got is the title, which is This Old Lady, and it seems to be by Pop-Off Tuesday, 'cos those are the only other words, well they're not actually on the label, they're on the sleeve. I thought to meself when I first heard this, actually I've never heard anything like this, you kind of immediately listen to it and you think, they're kind of copying somebody, and then a mate of mine said, "They sound like the Cranberries." And I'm afraid they do, really: I was rather hoping they don't turn out to be the Cranberries, cos that would be hugely embarrassing, but there you go. It's still a great record, whoever it is.')
