==Links to Peel==
Peel played Mike Sarne's 1962 hit, 'Come Out' on his 24 April 1973 show, which appeared to be a Sixties and Liverpool night on the Peel wingding, with sessions from two Merseybeat stalwarts of yesteryear (plus Manchester-born Wayne Fontana from the same era), and all the records dating back to the previous decade (other than one track from the first Faces album, released in 1970), including many old favourites. In The Peel Sessions, Ken Garner quotes John Walters' verdict on the show in 1992 as "must have been one of Peel's funny periods." (pg 288).
