One or two other teeny blanks?? (help?)

[ken garner]

Thanks, everyone, that's great. You didn't have to go all that 
trouble Phil, Martin, Andy, but once again I really appreciate it. As 
you all might have spotted, the problem in the latter years has only 
been really with very occasional live events, where a standard pre-
record session sheet is not really always possible under time 
pressures. About Andy's question on the two late ones being after 
John died: Louise Kattenhorn had, before he died, booked sessions 
John wanted doing right up to the end of 04. She decided these should 
be honoured and recorded and broadcast, and therefore I quickly took 
the decision that they should go in the book (leaving them out would 
be really snotty and puritanical, I felt). They are Peel sessions, 
it's just John sadly did not get to hear them or broadcast them. You 
can read more all about this in chapter one of the book! - in 
the same way that I am also putting in the new sessions on those very 
early Top Gears (3 of them) that he did not actually present or co-
present) - they became his by historical default long ago. 

er, just one final thing: does anyone have exact dates for the two 
editions of the old Radio 5's CHAIN REACTION show in which Peel 
appeared? In one week's show, david Gedge interviewed Peel as HIS 
hero (this is the one 6 Music have used in those big tribute shows); 
and the next week, Peel Interviewed Ian Rush (not Kenny Dalglish, as 
some websites claim). I taped them but, yes, I do it too, forgot to 
put the exact date on! My best guess is sometime between late 92 and 
late 93, midweek, midevening. Neither the BBC INfax / Programme 
Intake catalogues or Radio Times help here, I'm afraid. They have 
entries for the show, but not who was on which weeks,

cheers
