NOT The Festive Fifty 1976 ,,,,,,Another different Fifty

[thebarguest]

Yes, there must have been a lot of crossover between Peel's show
and Freeman's in 1976. For example, that Roxy Music live album from 
which 2 songs are played, on part 1 of Bill's Fluff recording.

On Fluff's "last" show in 1978, he plays a Clash song -
guess which one.

"Mashed potato schmalz" - I wonder what Morrissey thought of
that line, certainly makes you think.......

Regards,
Sandy Richardson

ps that other Fluff 77 show would be interesting (when you're
   ready), Bill
