*Start of show: "Good evening to yous lovelies. The first time tonight's session from the Psychedelic Furs was broadcast I was confined to quarters with an ague and the man Read did the program instead. 28 February 1980. Therefore I am looking forward to hearing it myself for the first time. Especially their version of Mac The Knife. Also tonight the second session we have taken from The Tearjerkers."
