[Phyll@...]

One thing i do remember is the 25th Aniversary of TB in 1987 Mike Oldfield do a session version of TB truncated to 15-20 mins, with John Peel as MC in recognition of his 
contribution to it's popularity, though the track (or rather  Oldfield) was deemed to be 'too important' to be broadcast in Peel's late night spot and it went out in a staurday afternoon 
show instead - possibly the resurected Johnny Walker show, Peel mentioned it and some of the history re him and TB on his own show at the time and was bemused by the whole 
thing being moved to Walker's show (it might have even been used as part of the launch of Walker's afternoon show and the 'new R1 line up' - but i could be making that up).
