Hi Bill
I was impressed at quality of recording listening through my headset.
I am used to feeling a bit smug for loving the Peely show enough to listen and keep the best bits from about 1978 on to tdk chrome tapes.
Of course what I have are the tracks that I thought were the best from each show. My early tapes did include charty stuff, Alexis Corner, but sadly not much of the dj's.
I am happy to upload these but not really sure how at the moment. I have my tapes, which have now been digitized to wav, which were later separated into alternative to commercial music. I still scan radio shows that play sort of alternative stuff for the best tracks to compile my "best of" cd of the month of about 24tracks as I still love new music.

  OK, after being admonished about shouting, and spelling names 
  correctly, and being slated as crazy for digitising in 24bit/96khz, I 
  have come back a bit sheepishly to offer part 2 of the Festive 50 
  1978.

  But, y'know, sometimes you feel like shouting, and sometimes peoples 
  names are not spelt how you expect, and sometimes you just try and 
  make 
  things the best you can.

  Anyway, on with the show.

  This is the full 2 hour show broadcast on Wednesday 27 December 1978 
  at 
  10PM.

  It features sessions by Buzzcocks, Steel Pulse, and X Ray Spex.

  After Part 1 played the best of the 1976 FF50, part 2 introduces the 
  concept of playing some of the best sessions of the year and then 
  proceeding with the countdown, in this case numbers 40 to 26. 

  I don't think that was done in 76 because the tracks tended to be 
  much 
  longer then.

  This one contains 4 joins from tape flips and tape changes, as I 
  scrambled to find unused parts of cassettes and old tapes to record 
  on 
  back then.

  (I always keep as much of the original as possible, and patch just 
  the 
  section missing, rather than replace the entire track. Some are 
  fairly 
  invisible to my ears, and others less so) 

  No naming convention at all followed here yet.

  According to that Message History chart thing at the bottom, there 
  were more messages last month than at any time since the group began. 
  Imagine that.

  Bill
