Thanks Tom, for giving us an insight into the workings of  "The Man". Who on
earth is going to spend the hours he did listening to all those demos, in
order to sort out the chaff from the wheat to give us a 2 hour show 3 times
a week and still fit in odd request and also renew interest in recordings
made nearly 70 years ago. Where are we going to find such diversity?
I believe it was last year, when Peely was on holiday and people were
racking their brains as to what it would be like without "Yer Man". Last
week, was another taster. The closest we got in diversity was Tuesday's show
(with Underworld). The track that did it for me (I don't know if this was
it's 1st time out) was a vocal track of a JP anecdote of him at a Rod
Stewart Dinner Party, distorted and remixed. I thought, if he hasn't heard
it yet, he'd love it.
