The sound is pretty 'live' however you listen to it, but to get the full 'being there' effect, try listening via headphones - it's a binaural recording, which means you get an amazingly life-like stereo image when heard through headphones. If you listen carefully, you can travel with me to the bar and hear me ordering a couple of cans!

(Richard Shaw Brown) Date: Sun, 2 Dec 2007 12:28:46 +0000 (GMT) Subject: I LOVE THIS JOHN PEEL QUOTE (IT WAS WORTH THE 37 YEARS WAIT) Message-ID: <463515.64176.qm@...> I LOVE THIS JOHN PEEL QUOTE (IT WAS WORTH THE 37 YEARS WAIT) (In 1966) The Misunderstood played at Pandora's Box on Sunset in LA, about which John Peel told Index Magazine in 2003, "If I had to list the ten greatest performances I've seen in my life, one would be The Misunderstood at Pandora's Box, Hollywood, 1966. It was the only time I've seen an audience reduced to impotent silence". HOW WELL I REMEMBER � CHAPTER 34: Pandora's Box Would you believe? We start out pretending to be English, and we actually become a British band, in real-live London. 'How in the world did that happen?' you wonder. Well, it all started with John Peel, at Hollywood's crazy Pandora's Box rock club. A mighty wild night that would really change our lives. We're on stage. The club's lights are out. The only light is the flashing coming from behind our amps. We're playing The Yardbird's classic, 'I'm Not Talking' � in OUR style. And we're just coming to our long freak out solo, where we leave the stage with music on auto-pilot. No sh*t! The music suddenly jerks to a halt, and into the microphone I shout, 'I'M NOT TALKIN' Then the band comes in together�CRASH!�and again jerks to a stop. I finish the rap, 'THAT'S ALL I GOTTA SAY!' Drum roll�. Feedback: 'Bhuzzzzzz' Whoa, here we go. Glenn begins amazing shrieks and screeching sounds in Indian raga style, and all the guys get their guitars feeding back in different tremolo speeds, some fast, like 'wah wah wah', some slow, like, 'woo woo woo.' The guys remove their guitars, lean them against their amps, and we all jump off the stage into the audience, leaving the guitars feeding back. Moe is the only band member on stage, keeping the beat. The lights flash in sync with the screaming feedback, accompanied by Moe's pounding drums. The scene is unreal. Me and the other guys go behind the crowd to see how it looks. It's spectacular! Mind-blowing! The bartender even closes the bar to watch the spectacle of the world's first-ever psychedelic light show. We all stand with him looking as our unattended guitars wail away in controlled feedback, the likes of which Hollywood, and the world, has never seen. John Peel is standing with the band, and has to shout into my ear to be heard. 'Rick! RICK! Look at the crowd!' We both see the crowd, hypnotized, all their eyes on the near empty flashing, screaming stage, their mouths just hanging open... 'Ha!' I laugh. 'Looks like the Misunderstood are better off stage than all the other groups are ON stage!' John is straining his voice to tell me, 'Rick, I know we've tried the record companies here. All they want is what sells: pop music!' The stunning sounds suddenly get louder. Glenn has climbed back on stage and starts an Indian raga-riff, making it feed back even more. Moe keeps the steady beat, along with Steve who also joins in again. I'm still standing behind the crowd with John. I ask him, 'What? What did you say?' 'I THINK YOU SHOULD MOVE TO LONDON!' he shouts into my ear. 'What? What about London?' I holler back. 'The band should move to London! My brother Alan can help!' John suggests. Duh! Dumb me, I'm like, 'Where's Alan?' - or better yet, 'Where's London?' 'He lives in London, so does my Mum! I come from England, remember?' But I don't reply. Instead I weave my way through the crowd � the people are so amazed by the musical drama that they don't even notice me � and I jump back onto the stage to join the other band members. I take the shrieking bongo drum off the head of my microphone and we jerk to a halt. Again I belt out, 'I'm not talkin'!' CRASH! 'That's what I gotta say!' And we're back into the song again, blasting at full volume. All amps set on volume 15 (out of 1-10). After the sustained noise of the feedback the music is even more powerful, and the audience are really getting into it. Bitchen! YEAH! I glance at Glenn, and he has a look like, 'Wow! Have we stumbled on to something here, or what?' Moe is shaking his hair, spraying sweat into the lights. Greg is bouncing up and down as he plays his guitar. His head hits the roof of the low stage sending down a small shower of plaster. When the 10-12 minute song ends there is a moment of dead silence - 'gulp x 5' - then the audience breaks into a loud roar of sustained applause, surging towards the stage. We're all smiling in a dazed, bemused kind of way. Greg is rubbing his head, which he's surprised to find has blood from where he'd hit it. In the audience, John Peel is looking on like a proud father figure. 'Yo Papa!' After the gig we're on the way home. Greg is driving, Steve in the passenger seat, I'm leaning forward between them; Moe and Glenn sit in the back, crushed between all the equipment. 'So it's simple,' I'm telling them. 'John can fix it all up. His mom lives right in the middle of London, we can stay there. His brother's an actor or something � he's totally connected � he can hook us up with a manager, maybe even a record deal.' 'So, what are you saying?' asks Steve. 'We just like pack up everything and fly to England�' Greg interrupts, '� and become an overnight sensation, hang out with the Beatles and the Stones, and then conquer the world�' 'Well, yeah. Basically.' I prod, 'What would you rather do, sit here and rot in Riverside? None of the Hollywood record companies will even give us the time of day.

Brown ended up escaping from boot camp and hiding in India for 12 years, until he was granted amnesty in 1979. Without their lead singer and frontman, the band ended up in disarray and broke up. --- In peel@yahoogroups.com, Paul Bryant wrote: > > Fine story, but remind me why the Misunderstood were > never successful - sounds like they really should have > been. > > > --- Richard Shaw Brown wrote: > > > I LOVE THIS JOHN PEEL QUOTE (IT WAS WORTH THE 37 > > YEARS WAIT) > > > > (In 1966) The Misunderstood played at Pandora's Box > > on Sunset in LA, > > about which John Peel told Index Magazine in 2003, > > "If I had to list > > the ten greatest performances I've seen in my life, > > one would be The > > Misunderstood at Pandora's Box, Hollywood, 1966.

Date: Mon, 03 Dec 2007 07:51:50 -0500 Subject: [OT] [Altrok] Update #184: Support Your Local Web Radio Station! Message-ID: <0JSH009RC55R9ZS0@...> [Altrok] New Adds...Listen For Free...Or Not. Folks, Firstly, the important stuff: Altrok Radio is at http://www.altrokradio.com Please remember to tune in whenever you can - every hour you listen turns into more visibility for the station; we show up higher in search listings, and such like that. And if you'd like to help us keep the stream running, check out the advertisers if they appeal to you; your interest actually helps fund us. Now then, to be clear: Altrok Radio is free to listen to, and will be for as long as I can manage it. But if you'd like to listen without advertising (we'll interrupt occasionally to tell you what's coming up on the station) there's a VIP program run by Live365. When you're a VIP, you get access to the commercial-free version of the station, plus all the ads on their website go away. Cost is actually pretty reasonable; the roughly-$15-every-three-months plan seems to be the most popular option. Here's the link if you're interested: http://www.live365.com/rewards/pm?tag=muddychannel And yes, we get a small kickback on that - $1.50 when you sign up, and a penny or so about every three hours you listen. Not much, but we're a pretty lean operation; we'll take what we can get. All that said, bet you're wondering what those new songs we've added are... This week, our Grinders (the stuff we play heavily) include music from: - Wire - Black Francis - These New Puritans - Love Ends Disaster! - Frightened Rabbit - Twisted Wheel Plus we've got newly-added music: - Nicole Atkins - Brooklyn's On Fire! - Neptune City - Crystal Castles - XxzxcZx Me - Downloadable Single - Damn Shames - Fear Of Assault - 7'' Single - Electric President - Dotted Lines - A Number Of Small Things [Comp] - Fiery Furnaces - Duplexes Of The Dead - Widow City - The Gay Blades - He She Say - Ghosts - The Kinks - Sunny Afternoon (Minitel Rose Remix) - Downloadable Single - Lima Research Society - Magic Juice Box - WoO! an EP - Mum - Dancing Behind My Eyelids - Go Go Smear The Poison Ivy - Operator Please - Ghost - Yes Yes Vindictive - Lou Reed - Safety Zone - Nanking - Tokyo Police Club - Your English Is Good - 7'' Single - The Video Nasties - Accessory - The Shed Sessions [EP] - Voxhaul Broadcast - The Backrooms - Rotten Apples - West Indian Girl - To Die In LA - 4th & Wall Our Featured Classics: - The Alarm - Marching On - The Alarm - Cabaret Voltaire - Sensoria - Micro-Phonies - Filter - The Best Things - Title Of Record - The Jam - Pretty Green - Sound Affects - Kitchens Of Distinction - The 3rd Time We Opened The Capsule - Capsule; The Best Of K.O.D; 1988-94 - The Motors - Dancing The Night Away - Motors 1 - Our Daughter's Wedding - Lawn Chairs - 7'' Single - Siouxsie And The Banshees - Monitor - Juju - Tears For Fears - Shout (Extended Version) - 12'' Single - Violent Femmes - Gone Daddy Gone - Violent Femmes As always, thanks for listening! - Sean Carolan Altrok Radio On your computer right now at http://www.altrokradio.com On the radio Fridays at 10pm, at 90.5 The Night From so_it_goes_2512@...

For me the Peel shows blended a fair amount of old stuff with a plentiful amount of the new - I learnt to appreciate the blues purely through the odd old track he slipped into his programmes....so playing a 30 yr old Blues track in 1977 is in my opinion no different to playing Teenage Kicks today in that it may introduce it to a whole new audience.

I shall alter that error forthwith! I suppose that I'm of that mindset which uses terms like Assistant, Producer and Engineer interchangably - I always imagine that 'Producer' - in daytime parlance at least - means that this person chooses the playlist for a show (when not bound by THE playlist, of course...) I think I'd be right in saying that for much of his career John chose all the records himself... but then, Walters had input when he was doing it, and Alison would have been heavily involved in sourcing sessions and the like? This might well all have been covered in the book, but perhaps not in such detail that it'd have become dull enough for me to remember!

In-Reply-To: <048A152D-850A-4B43-9A6E-FE1C8174C157@...> Message-ID: er, yes it was in the book, Stu, but spread out over the chapters where relevant as to when the arrangements changed. Producers always booked and approved the session bands, but from mid-70s onwards mostly at Peel's recommendations / requests. AS regards the records and the main running order, essentially I think it went like this: 1967-1982 Producers (Bernie Andrews, John Muir, John Walters, Chris Lycett) decided final running order and yes and no on individual records, while Peel (mostly) selected and chose/ recommmended the records. In first few months of R1 in late 67 and into early 68 Bernie selected and programmed most of Top Gear, with Peel having a stronger influence and input as the weeks went on. 1983 Jan-March: Peel did own running orders for first time under producer Trevor Dann 1983-1991 (walters again) Peel drafted running orders, Walters revised and tweaked... and then sometimes on air Peel ignored his revisions! Summer 1991 onwards (producers successively Mike Hawkes, Alison Howe, Anita Kamath, Louise Kattenhorn) Peel did own running orders more or less unedited / unrevised by remaining producers, who still of course coordinated the whole show including session and live elements, especially for outside broadcasts / live concert sets kg --- In peel@yahoogroups.com, Stuart Mchugh wrote: > > > Just one point: a common myth, but Hermeet was > > never actually Peel's producer, he was broadcast assistant, Dec 02 > > - the end. > > I shall alter that error forthwith!

(Paul Bryant) Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2007 12:06:05 -0800 (PST) Subject: You'll Never be 16 Again Message-ID: <370034.95222.qm@...> Dear all there was a BBC radio series in 1986 called "You'll Never be 16 Again" subtitled "an illustrated history of the British teenager" written by Peter Everett. Peel wrote the introduction and so for those who have not got this delightful book, here's Peel's intro. ********** I was sixteen in 1955. The fledgling Peel, then a rather solitary, vacant youth with more hair than was considered entirely derigueur, was serving time at Shrewsbury School. Last year my mother found and gave me my school reports from the period. They do not, I fear, make pretty reading. 'His pose of idleness amuses me but aggravates others,' wrote my form-master. One of the others was more forthright. 'As beastly as ever.' he began, 'the unpunctuality, inefficiency, inaccuracy, untidiness and idleness are still there. He is no fun to teach.' R.H.J, Brooke, my house-master and a man for whose tolerance and wisdom my admiration grows with every passing year, wrote, 'If he gets a study next term, we want less of Donnie Lonegan and more of the constructive effort.' The 'Donnie Lonegan' was deliberate. Brooke knew the extent to which my attempts to forge some sort of character for myself, at a school where University still meant Oxford or Cambridge and failure to achieve one or the other led shamed pupils to join the Kenya Rifles or take holy orders, depended on kicking, as it were, against the pricks. My father, perhaps similarly acute, always referred to the King of Skiffle as 'Lollie Dolligan', thereby confirming me in my admiration for Donegan's nasal Americanisms and apparently anarchic approach to his work. Trying to explain to listeners less than half my age what life was like for me at sixteen-an explanation, I should hurriedly add, that they rarely seek or welcome - quickly becomes rather like trying to explain cricket to a Frenchman. There were for example, virtually no gigs to go to at all - and they certainly weren't called gigs. The first concert I attended (with my mother) was a performance at the Liverpool Stadium by the Oberkirchen Children's Choir, recorders of one of the most successful versions of 'The Happy Wanderer', an oafish hiking song which had been in the charts for a whole year. The charts of the period were based on sheet music sales and a successful song - 'Poppa Piccolino' or 'Three Coins in the Fountain', for example - might be available on record in twenty versions or more. The second live concert I went to - again with my mother - was given by Johnny Ray at the Liverpool Empire. Ray topped a bill which may well. in the spirit of the age, have included comedians, magicians and dog acts. I was rather disappointed with him, as I was a few weeks later with Frankie Laine at the same venue. Laine, whose records I had been buying since hearing a curious work called 'Chow Willy' in the early 1 950s. turned out to be a markedly unhandsome man in a sus- piciously voluminous suit who could, I noted with horror, have been in his thirties. This was a time when - or so I believed -women, regardless of age. were attracted only to men in their mid-forties. Nowadays the situation has deteriorated to the point where women, if attracted to men at all, yearn only for those in their late teens and early twenties. This has always struck me as especially unfair. On the other hand, as a sixteen-year- old my understanding of women, their behaviour and, as it were, geography was virtually nil. I was fourteen before I realised that girls are constructed differently to us chaps. The revelation came whilst playing hide-and-seek ('At fourteen?' I hear you cry) at my godmother's home near Ludlow. I had hidden in the gardener's toilet where I was joined, after some moments, by a clearly unself-conscious girl of my own age who, to my distress threw herself onto the Shanks for a pee. I don't believe I can sensibly convey to you my horror at what I saw. Mind you, even by the standards of the age, I was fairly backward. At school was so frustrated at my inability to find no soulmate with whom I could discuss the work of Little Richard. Fats Domino and Gene Vincent that in desperation I joined the jazz club. called, with ponderous inevitability, the High Society. I and my newly acquired Earl Bostic record ('Sleep� backed with 'Flamingo' and still worth a listen) were greeted with such condescension by the languid sixth-formers who ran the High Society that I made my excuses and left. Come to think of it, I have never really found anyone of my own age to share my musical appetites, with the result that when I am dragged protesting to parties in the village where I live, I find myself embroiled in conversations on such lively topics as lagging boilers and stripping pine. I live in hope that one day I will encounter a vet, estate agent or bank manager who is profoundly affected by the Fall or Bogshed. The impact on my teenage years on hearing Elvis Presley for the first time (on 'Family Favourites') is paralleled by the reactions of those quoted within. The importance of the cheap drain-pipe trousers and hellish green socks I bought on Scotland Road and hid, along with a selection of Health and Efficiencies, in my bedroom cupboard, will become apparent. You'll Never Be Sixteen Again helps me to put my own past in order and to realise that I was not. as I thought at the time stumbling through these experiences alone. For a man who will never be fortysix again, this is somehow obscurely important ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals?

Some listeners suggested afterwards that I should dedicate a whole 3-hour show, or a special, to records INTENTIONALLY played at the 'wrong', but in fact 'better' speed. I think this is a great idea and therefore I also ask the music wizards of this group to come up with suggestions. So, which records sound better played at a different speed!!!???

About AS I ROVED OUT, I meant to say, I have been sent pdfs which are clearly created from scans of faxed-in running orders to the BBC from the production company. I think the easiest thing to do would be for me sometime to simply type out the track details, because there are not that many per show, then post that as a single word file up here under files. k --- In peel@yahoogroups.com, "andthezmore" wrote: > > I'd like to say a thankyou too.

It really freaked out my 8- year old son to see my name in the acknowledgement section!! The chapter that chronologilizes the Radio 1 Peel shows is great, it also brought back lots of great memories for me. Of all the great tapes shared since 2004 by many people subscribing to this forum (many thanks for them all, by the way) my favourite are the 6 30 minute tapes JP did for Virgin Record Stores in 1979/80. I'm sure most of you have them and agree, but does anyone have any information about them? Did they really get played in the record shops? I do hope so! No mention of them in the book, as they are not Radio 1 but any more info about them would be appreciated or does anyone know where there are more of the little gems?

In-Reply-To: Message-ID: thanks, graham, for kind words... ...but I'm sorry, I know nothing at all about those virgin store shows, and I haven't even heard them, although I think they might be on those 17 DVDs somewhere (?). As I explained in my preface to In Session Tonight, although I can date my listening to september 1975, October 77 thru to end of 82 are pretty blank to me personally (alert readers will spot that 80-82 are rather briskly dealt with in the book's main text!). I was too busy being a student and getting (latterly) heavily into disco and funk. Then I found myself living on my own and returned to the fold by accident (Jensen's, and Peel's R1 shows, came on BBC Radio London's frequency at 8pm after Alex Pascal's Black Londoners nightly show, which I loved) in time for the Smiths' first session in 83. Anyway, I suspect he did those shows for virgin stores because he was pretty peeved at losing the friday night to the Friday Rock Show at the end of 78, and also needed the money. The Sunday Request show Peel got instead at R1, which Sheila talks about in Margrave, was actually only a one-third gig in early 1980 (the show was rotated between Peel, Gambo and Stu Coleman by producer Bernie Andrews, after Annie Nightingale got a fri night show) and this only ran for 3 months anyway I now discover (yes, the brief entry about this in the shows index is wrong, sorry, I made the mistake of trusting Margrave and a nostalgia website). Do we know how many he may have done for Virgin Radio in all? And so was it also about this time that Peel was on Radio Luxembourg as well? The general location of the sentence about this in Margrave (p 404) suggests it may have been around the start of the eighties. Anyone know anything about or have any recordings of those? Now they would be curious to hear... ken --- In peel@yahoogroups.com, "hammieweb" wrote: > > ...thanking Ken Garner for his (2nd) excellent book I would just like > to add my name to the already long list.

All my raw data has for the show of W 25/12/85 is repeats of Cookie Crew #1, Shriekback #3, and Misty #7, all from 1985, of course. By the way, seeing as it's coming up to that time of year, people might be interested to learn that according to the sheets, and therefore included in my first original rough editon of "the shows" index, 67-sept 92, I do have most, if not all (evidently) of what appears to be the info on what the "Best Sessions of the Year" were, repeated over Christmas, for the years 78-85, and 87 (no info on 86). I did not bother to note down what the latter years were in detail, just scribbled on my notebook 'best of yr', sorry. Would people be interested to see that info, if only for those few years? I edited it down for the book out of what in the end transpired to be misplaced fears of pressure on space in this section. But I should be able to cut and paste over from the old document fairly easily. Anyway, looking forward to the 1985 show download, thanks. I too am excited by the prospect of hearing eventually the Peel Out in The States shows. I remember John talking about making them in 92- 93 but never heard them. Might one of our number in the USA be able to find out some of the stations which broadcast them, and when, exactly? (I appreciate college radio schedules are more fluid than the stately grandeur and fixity of the BBC and Radio Times). It has just occurred to me there is perhaps one other way of officially finding out when exactly he did all these other things - the Virgin Store shows, Radio Luxembourg, Peel out in the states, Radio Bremen, Radio Eins, Radio Mafia etc etc - but it would require some tact. I'll think about it and post here if I have any luck by the new year. Can't say any more now. Re. You'll Never Be 16 again: if memory serves, this series, first TX on Radio 4, twice, then repeated (edited) 2 or even 3 further times on R1, was one of the earliest examples of montage style, and although I didn't tape them (or did I? I'll have a rummage one day) I think Peel's role was largely to kick them off, and later give perhaps very occasional links only. It was terrific, though. kg --- In peel@yahoogroups.com, Julian Porter wrote: > > You're a rotter Kev!

Message-ID: Hi all I just wondered if there are any of Peel's BFBS (British Forces Broadcasting Service) shows floating about in tape-land anywhere? I used to listen to them regularly in the late-70s/ early 80s when I was stationed in Berlin (79-81) and later, Belize (81-82) where I actually 'worked' as a DJ at the BFBS station. BTW, just before I left Belize, a gent named Robert Neal (or Neil) joined the station as Controller. This was an attempt to upgrade the standard of professionalism as previously a Royal Signals Sergeant was in charge of the whole she-bang. Robert was (I guess) in his 60s but thought he was quite 'with-it' in a flowery cravat sort of way. He claimed to have worked with Peel in some capacity (I can't remember what) but I've never seen any mention of him anywhere. Anyone know of him? He was a decent chap, with flowing white hair a la Michael Winner. I remember him sitting behind me as an observer during one of my all- night shows (which made me incredibly nervous). "Your levels are good" he said afterwards (Phew!) :-) Anyway...I wouldn't mind hearing some of those old "John Peel's Music" shows ("Hi, I'm John Peel and this is some of my music"...cue the Duh-duh-duh duh-duh-duh PIL theme tune) for nostalgia's sake, if any still exist.

I haven't a clue how much longer the series continued anyway. I know that loads of Germans used to tape them back then. I knew a fellow named Rheinhardt who worked in the Berliner Bank back then. He used to have friends in the UK who would tape Peel's Radio 1 shows and then post them to him in Germany. They were like gold dust :-) Obviously the 1981-82 shows I remember a lot because I used to have to play them on BFBS Belize, although our ancient tape machines had a habit of dropping the tapes off the spool halfway through every programme, but we never minded when that happened during The Archers, or Just a Minute ;-) From tonydonaghey@...

Message-ID: <253020.28868.qm@...> Many moons ago I found myself in Salford near the University and saw a sign for a record shop. Thru the door, up the stairs which were covered in boxes of tapes and into quite a big shop. I'd just started browsing when I heard the usual "Are you looking for anything in partcular?" but then followed by "if not then they're overpriced but if you like the look of something I'll tape it for you!" Years later I saw the guy in a Record Collector article and apparently he ran his shop like this for years. Tony From theupsetter1969@... Thu Dec 20 00:49:23 2007 From: theupsetter1969@... (notsilentmike2004) Date: Wed, 19 Dec 2007 23:49:23 -0000 Subject: Hi there Message-ID: Hi I'm new here and have been enjoying the comments and whatnot posted. Love Mr Peel and still prefer his old shows on my mp3 walkman rather than anything the current jocks have to offer. My first Peel memory would be sitting under my Star Wars duvet with a small radio listening to all the scary punk and new wave via a 'deaf aid' earpiece. I expect this was the same for many people. Also I remember having to sit through some god awful choral singing on radio two until Peel could come on the air as radio one and two shared the same FM wavelength at the time on a sunday evening. It wasn't until his death that I found that he was loved the world over for the same reasons he was in the UK. Regularly I used to sit around listening online whilst simulataniously talking about the shows and music played with a freind in Mexico City and one in the south of France and me in the south of UK. It was as if the Atlantic were one large coffee table. I had the pleasure of being mentioned twice on the show and my french friend was gutted when she didn't hear the mention for her, luckily I recorded it for her and she was thrilled. No one since has ever gripped me the way Mr.Peel's playlists did. When he died Broadcasting suddenly became Narrow casting. From alan@... Thu Dec 20 21:24:07 2007 From: alan@...

As I indicate below, this is certainly not complete and may have errors not of my making. The Radio Times did not bill where Peel was in the F50 every year, either. But I thought those of you who get misty eyed at F50 time might find this an evocative early evocation of Christmas past. Happy holidays, all! Looking forward to tape-based corrections, and maybe others can fill in 88-93 (the romeo sheets which came in in 88 are not much good for repeat dates, frankly) kg Peel's "Best Sessions of the Year" Christmas/New Year repeats, 1978- 1987* (*needletime was abolished in 1988 so the need to repeat quite so many sessions at the end of each year disappeared, although the ritual continued in increasingly diluted form until the end of 1992) Note: these details are based solely on Radio Times billings and repeat dates written on to the original session sheets. These repeat dates may be wrong in places. Other repeats may have happened on these dates but not been noted on the sheets 1978 T 26/12 I have no information: but there was a show W 27/12 (Buzzcocks #2, Steel Pulse #2, X-Ray Spex #1) Th 28/12 (Magazine #1, Alternative TV #2, Penetration #1, The Slits #2) M 1/1/79 (Boomtown Rats #2, Elvis Costello & Attractions #2, De Dannann, Reggae Regular #1, Siouxsie and the Banshees #2) 1979 Th 20/12 (Cockney Rejects, The Jam #3, Killing Joke, Misty #1, The Skids #4, The Undertones #2) M 24/12 Viv Stanshall #8 (The Cure #2, The Damned #4, Secret Affair #2, Steel Pulse #3) T 25/12 no show W 26/12 (Chords, Gary Numan and Tubeway Army, Penetration #2, The Specials #2, Stiff Little Fingers #3) Th 27/12 (Buzzcocks #4, Magazine #3, Merton Parkas, The Selecter, Siouxsie and the Banshees #3, UK Subs #3) M 31/12 no show T 1/1/80 (The Beat #1, Capital Letters, Leyton Buzzards #3, Lene Lovich #2, The Police, The Ruts #1) 1980 M 22/12 F50 50-41, sessions details unknown T 23/12 F50 40-31, session details unknown W 24/12 (Dexy's Midnight Runners, Spoldgenessabounds, The Undertones #4) F50 30-21 Th 25/12 no show M 29/12 (Adam and the Ants #2, The Beat #2, Icarus, Killing Joke #2, The Passions #3) F50-20-11 T 30/12 (Bow Wow Wow, The Cure #3, Echo and the Bunnymen #3, Misty #3, The Ruts #3, Teardrop Explodes #2) F50 10-1 W 31/12 no show 1981 W 23/12 F50 50-41, session details unknown Th 24/12 F50 40-31, session details unknown M 28/12 (New Order, Altered Images #2, Revillos, The Higsons, Rip Rig and Panic) F50 30-21 T 29/12 (Siouxsie and the Banshees #4, Misty #4, Skodas, Angels 1-5, Jass Babies) F50 20-11 W 30/12 session details unknown, F50 10-1 Th 31/12 no show 1982 M 20/12 (The Crabs, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Roman Holiday) T 21/12 (Xmal Deutschland, The Sisters of Mercy, The March Violets, The Cherry Boys #2) W 22/12 (The Higsons #3, Wild Weekend, Action Pact) Th 23/12 (New Order #2, Serious Drinking, Come in Tokyo, Blancmange) M 27/12 (The Farmer's Boys, Strawberry Switchblade, The Undertones #5, Danse Society #2) T 28/12 (Amazulu, Send No Flowers, The Redskins, Tears for Fears) W 29/12 (The Passage #3, Laurel and Hardy, 3D a Fish in Sea, The Cravats #4) Th 30/12 (Southern Death Cult, Scream and Dance, The Twinsets #2, The High Five) 1983 W 21/12 (Twa Toots, Three Mustaphas Three #2, The Cocteau Twins #2, Xmal Deutschland #2, Echo and the Bunnymen #5, Eek a Mouse and Kalabash # Th 22/12 (Sophie and Peter Johnston #1, Microdisney, Eton Crop, The Three Johns #3, Craig Charles, Test Department) M 26/12 Rhythm Pals' Boxing Day Bash 7.30pm-midnight, no sessions, I think T 27/12 (The Gymslips #3, Serious Drinking #4, The Chameleons #2, Helen and the Horns, Big Country #1, Misty #5) W 28/12 (Orchestral Maneouvres in the Dark #4, Culture, Black #2, The Popticians, Wah! #4, Einstürzende Neubauten) Th 29/12 (Trixie's Big Red Motorbike #2, The Icicle Works #2, Yip Yip Coyote, The Frank Chickens #2, The Smiths) M 2/1/84 details unknown 1984 T 18/12 (Terry and Gerry, Everything but the Girl #1, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, The Frank Chickens #3, The Meteors #3) W 19/12 details unknown M 24/12 no show T 25/12 (The Men They Couldn't Hang, The Mighty Wah! #5, Syncbeat, Guana Batz #2, Ivor Cutler #13, The Folk Devils #2, Die Zwei at the Rodeo, Marc Riley and the Creepers #2, Yip Yip Coyote #3, Shreikback #2, Bronski Beat #1) W 26/12 (Boothill Foot Tappers, Triffids, Junior Gee and the Capital Boys, Sisters of Mercy #2, Billy Bragg #3, The Smiths #3) M 31/12 no show T 1/1/85 (The Farm #2, Eek-A Mouse #2, The Cocteau Twins #4, Three Mustaphas Three #3) Note: If the details for 25/12/84 are correct, I suspect that was an all-session show, with no records, so the day's needletime could be concentrated on other shows, and that therefore, possibly, 19/12 might have been all disc 1985 M 16/12 (The Jesus and Mary Chain #2, The Triffids #2, The Men They Couldn't Hang #2, City Limits Crew and the Mutant Rockers, Billy Bragg #4, The Nightingales #6) F50 50-41 T 17/12 (Freiwillige Selbstkontrolle, Terry and Gerry #2, 1000 Violins, The Janitors, The Beloved) F50 40-31 W 18/12 (Prefab Sprout, 10,000 Maniacs, June Brides #1, The Fuzztones, The Folk Devils #3, Del Amitri #2) F50 30-21 M 23/12_(The Housemartins, The Shop Assistants, Age of Chance, Pigbros, Everything but the Girl #2, The Cure #6) F50 20-11 T 24/12 no show W 25/12 (The Cookie Crew #1, Shriekback #3, Misty #7, and...?)

I remember that I'd often look forward to the repeated sessions - Peelie would often read out in previous shows what he intended to include - but very often due to time constraints it would only be 2 or 3 tracks from each session - I guess he wouldn't know until he'd finalized the F50 how long each chunk of that would take, something that we at Dandelion Radio are discovering too! Don't forget that we are running the 2007 Festive 50 show as part of our programme stream from Dec 25th 'til the end of January! It's a five-hour show, and your first chance to hear it will be at mdnight GMT on Xmas Eve - we expect quite a few listeners at this time so will be increasing our bandwidth, but if you get an error message or can't log on, do try again later! The show will then be repeated at approximately 17-hourly intervals - check out the schedule page at www.dandelionradio.com for more details! Cheers! Rocker Cheers! Rocker From andthezmore@...

Tomorrow lunchtime, it's back to the beers at The Hobgoblin in Reading with a few ex-work colleagues, then it will be Christmas, so I thought I'd wish everyone on this list a Great Christmas and a Very Happy New Year before I depart into a hazy couple of days. Thanks to Kev for getting my old tapes around the place. Hopefully he'll get his Broadband back up and running soon after Crimbo and normal service will be resumed. Hope you liked the Christmas Special though. Big thanks to all you others who've been making stuff available and to any who intend to in the near future. I don't make News Years resolutions as I always break them the first day, but this year is different. I'm going to run through all the Peel programmes I have and get them all named in the same format (whatever was agreed) and then make the list available, hoepfully we can fill gaps then and of course check against each others listings.

Great at PEEL acres, he gets a round of applause, on the night bus home I suspect he would get pelted with chips... Shame The great man's fox impression is pretty damn good ...

Running time 50'31" -------------------------------------- Legendary DJ John Peel sets off on a journey around Germany in his trusty Mercedes 190. Stopping off to in various places, including Hamburg, Munich and Berlin, he visits radio stations, record shops and local landmarks. He also meets up with various friends, including the band FSK, visits community radio stations who he provided programmes for, and battles with articulated lorries on the autobahns. Sourced from a long play VHS tape, so the picture is a little dark and audio a bit thin-sounding. Don't let that put you off though, it's an enjoyable watch and has never been repeated to the best of my knowledge. From ken_garner@... Mon Dec 31 01:30:52 2007 From: ken_garner@...

Message-ID: At the risk of sounding seriously nerdy, as regards Peel and animal noises, I actually recall him saying and writing more than once that his only god-given talents were the ability to parallel park and make a sound like a dolphin, though not necessarily at the same time. I can recall no instance of his dolphin impression being broadcast, but then I was never a regular listener to Home Truths, where frankly almost any Peel-type self-indulgence was tolerated (amidst some occasionally very good human interviews, to be fair). I am not at all bothered either way, but seeing as we're on the subject, I wonder has anyone got a show tape with him doing that one on it? kg From eddie.duffy@...
