*Start of show: “Good timing, Lammo.”
*Describes watching Fairport Convention in Swindon as “one of the very best live gigs I went to in all of my life … an unforgettably great night.” (The night was discussed on the 16 February 1969 show; see also Gigography 1969). Plays a September 1969 session track by the band from a recently released box set – “I may cry, because I feel in that sort of mood this evening.” Says he was heartbroken when Sandy Denny died: “She was a wonderful person. I really liked her very much indeed.” Peel also used this track to sound off on one of his bugbears, namely the BBC's archiving policy in the late 60s/early 70s which saw episodes of Gardeners' Question Time accorded protected status, whilst a Pink Floyd session would be flung into the incinerators the moment after it had been broadcast.
*After the John Peel Sweet-Eating Game (“I think all of the people who played that have probably died of obesity-related causes”), the Mary Anne Hobbs Drink Game (mentioned at bottom of this page).
*The album containing the final track of the night apparently comes with a warning it may contain subliminal and/or backward messages - “I don’t want to listen to it unless it does.”
