[So It Goes 2512]

Hi Mark

That's great news, as I catalogued this chart (along with most of the other FF ones) on the Wiki, and it's long been a source of frustration to me that this one has only been partially available up to now. The first show of the 1994 FF is also way incomplete, if you or anybody 'happens' to have that lying around. Along with Ray's epochal series, we're well on the way to a complete series, which would have been considerably enhanced if the person who promised me recordings of the 1976 FF a year ago had come through instead of stringing me along for a year (they know who they are).
I also appreciate the thanks that have been coming in for uploads recently: it means a lot. And while we're on the subject, great mixtape uploads, Stuart!
Best wishes
Steve [TK]

I've got about 40 or 50 shows on MD starting from the Festive Fifty shows of 1995. Most are full progs but some are just the 80 min duration of the MD. I've also got around 100 compilation tapes from 1980 onwards (I believe the young people of today refer to them as "mix" tapes) which are just my favourite tracks of the time but with no or limited comment from Peely. However, I did also sometimes fill the end of tapes with some of Peels wry comments (or Peelers as I used to call them). I put some Peelers on an MD and sent them to Andy Kershaw who used them on his shows (in 2006 I think).
