== Tracklisting ==
Part One
*Scrotum: 'Sudden War (Compilation LP-Total Virulence)' (Total Virulence) 30 March 1991
:(JP: 'A big day today, actually, because when I leave home and drive into town, I have to drive past Bury St. Edmunds on, as you might imagine, the Bury St Edmunds bypass. People who know that area will know that that is a road which is more in the process of being dug up than it is being clear, if you see what I mean, so the chances of actually finding it un-dug up are pretty remote. And yet today as I drove past, it was clear and there were no roadworks, and no contraflow systems or anything, and it was pretty exciting. I'm not entirely sure that I didn't sing out loud with the sheer pleasure of it, because it's been being dug up for so long, I think that people leave school, get a job and go to work on the dual carriageway there, and are involved in hideous initiation ceremonies in which their workmates urinate in their tea, and they grow old and die still working on the dual carriageway around Bury St. Edmunds. But as I say, at the moment it's open. Pretty thrilling.') 30 March 1991
*Foreheads In A Fishtank: 'Happy Shopper (7 inch)' (Stuf) 30 March 1991
:(JP: 'I wouldn't be at all surprised if there aren't lots of votes for that in next year's Festive Fifty, well, this year's Festive Fifty if there is one, because there were a great many votes, far too many in fact, for the previous single in last year's Festive Fifty.') John's comment is fair warning of what was to come: the 1991 Festive Fifty was abandoned and not broadcast until 1993. The 'previous single' he refers to was the touching ballad 'I Want To Masturbate At Castle Donnington'. 30 March 1991
*Thee Stash: '(We're) Selling Jeans For The USA (7 inch)' (Shakin' Street) The Clash are written all over this: this track is a remodelling of 'I'm So Bored With The USA', the other side is a cover of 'Should I Stay Or Should I Go?' and even the picture sleeve is a mock-up of the band's first LP. 31 March 1991
