The One That Was Played Backwards... and a bonus

[thebarguest]

Great stuff - just played it all !

Many thanks Ken - this is certainly 'holy grail' stuff !

Overall very good quality but I'm sure Bill could do a champion
remastering job to iron out the odd glitch here and there....

Great to hear an early Queen song ; Peel was very enthusiatic
about them - what a talent-spotter. He'd no doubt have hated their
80's "product", ho ho ....

Funny - I'd only recently played that "Pussyfooting" album to a
friend, great hangover music (for THIS Christmas), sounds quite
modern like summat off "Late Junction" perhaps. I prefer "Bush of
Ghosts" by Eno/Byrne though - classic album.

Happy holiday to all my readers !!
And a Peel-torrential 2009.....
