Surprised he played "Brick", wow ....

I reckon the most "seminal" show will be the next one
(hopefully) with, no doubt, loads of stuff from
"Never Mind The Bollocks" (sorry) !!

Seriously, it's strange how few posts here are about
the contents of the many Peel shows that have been
shared ......

Thanks a zillion to all recent sharers of shows, btw !!

Bye
Mike Hunt
