Hi folks
Final post from me before I head off to god's own county for xmas....
As it's the 30th anniversary of the 1979 festive 50 I decided to make an attempt at remastering the top 10, which is the only part of this one that seems to be (almost) complete.
I had 3 off air recordings of the top 10....
the first was of reasonable quality but missing the intro to #10 and with edits between #10 and #9, and between #3 and #2.
the second started half way through #10 and was otherwise complete, but the quality was beyond awful throughout, so I only used it for the 2 edited links above.
the third file was a actually a compilation of most of the right tracks culled from different broadcasts - quite amusing but obviously not the real deal....
This is the first time I've tried to remaster some Peel and I think it turned out OK. But I'd just like to add that despite my attempts to improve the quality of the audio taken from the beyond awful recording, our John still sounds a bit like a muffled dalek between #10 and #9 and between #3 and #2 - but it's better than nothing, and the music is awesome!
The only thing I haven't been able to include is Peel's intro to #10 - does anybody out there have it?
