; Comments
*One of the Lesley Duncan/Sweet Thursday session tracks, "SIng Children Sing", became the title track of Lesley Duncan's 1971 solo LP and is one of her best-known compositions, as is "Love Song", also on the session, which she re-recorded for her LP after it had been covered by Elton John on his 1970 LP Tumbleweed Connection.
*Sweet Thursday included a couple of musicians who went on to greater fame; pianist Nicky Hopkins, a legendary session player for many artists such as the Rolling Stones and the Who, and a member of the Jeff Beck Group and of Quicksilver Messenger Service, and guitarist Jon Mark, who had success in the USA with Mark-Almond. They recorded an LP for Tetragrammaton Records, which had a limited US release, but the label went bankrupt before it could be issued in the UK.
*Sound poet Bob Cobbing (misspelled as Bob Cobbings; see Night Ride Poets) and David Hughes listed in show details in Ken's book. Hughes may be the pop writer of that name, who worked for Disc & Music Echo between 1967 and 1972, overlapping with Peel's stint on the paper.
