Was listening to the show from the 22nd Feb 1982 the other night in work, as I'd seen from the wiki that JP had made repeated references to a gig he'd done at Edinburgh Uni at which I'd given him a request or two.

I fell off my chair when I heard him not read out my request, but one for one of my current work colleagues who I didn't even know was into JP at any point in his past!
