Update for old greedy guts here

Spent most of last November and December plying my way through all the Peel shows 78,79 and 80 which I am eternally grateful for.

But of course you get addicted and start wondering if there are any more. I must say by 1984 I don't quite find the shows as interesting purely because the music isn't imo.

However those earlier shows were an amazing trip back in time and I even remembered some of the hopelessly obscure tracks that he only played once as well as friend's sessions and mentions. My mate was in a band called The Monochonics and had nothing of their peel session stuff. Sure enough it was all there including letter read out by John.

Anyway... I was wondering... plenty of gaps (78 - 83 ).... do any of the shows exist in those gaps and are they to be ripped ? I know there is a box thats been split up and divvied out with rippers having increasing and varying degrees of difficulty converting the tapes.

I'm a greedy bugger and there does appear to have been a falling off.

Once again I can't thank the rippers enough for all these.
