He references "a list of HMHB gigs" which would imply it was prior to their demise in 1986 - when was that? He also plays 'Stormy Monday Blues' by Bob Gaddy but that doesn't help very much.

Last week I posted out the final last batch of 20 of the eBay "400 box" cassettes - these were mainly odds and sods that got missed out of the main ripping schedule, plus a few faulty tapes which may just work on a different machine. There are around 50 tapes still out there with rippers, a few of which have been made available via this group already. In the last few days I have had time to briefly go through the Steve Lowman tapes (and thanks to him btw!). There are 565 cassettes in all, and they are a very mixed bag - many are Peel / Kershaw, although of these I am unsure how many will turn out to be complete sections of shows, or just compilations of edited-down tracks without links. There are also quite a lot of non-Peel / Kershaw tapes, a few of "Mixing It", a few one-off radio shows, and a few which look like they were mixtapes, or recorded from LPs. Quite a different task to catalogueing the 400 Box - 95% of these tapes come with extensive handwritten tracklistings on the inserts, but no specific dates, although quite a few have a month and year - this may reflect the fact that they may be compilations from various shows rather than individual shows, although the random ones I have listened to today turned out to be complete sections of shows. Aware that there may be duplications, but suggest that we continue and rip all of them anyway, as there may be increases in quality, or tape flip / end-of-show gaps that can be filled. Have divided them into sections: 1991 - mainly Peel & Kershaw - 56 tapes 1992 - mainly Peel & Kershaw - very full coverage - 174 tapes 1993 - mainly Peel & Kershaw - very full coverage - 204 tapes 1994 and later - quite a few are Peel & Kershaw - 65 tapes Mixed bag - many non-Peel / Kershaw; Some pre 1991 Peel; One off radio shows & Lps - 66 tapes Will start sorting these out and sending to rippers in the next few days. Have started numbering the individual tapes pretty much in the order they come to hand - have started at "L001" and so on. Rippers - will mail you individually to let me know when I am sending you a batch. Have updated my spreadsheet with a new page for these tapes, but have not had time to enter any detail in terms of length of tape, condition, tracklist, date of broadcast etc - so will ask the rippers where possible to add information - can someone remind me / us where to find the spreadsheet file online - or could someone set up a section in the wiki for this info? There are a couple of odd tapes without tracklistings, and also a few cases with tracklistings but no tapes (no - they don't match!) - so if any rippers should find they have a mismatched tape and insert we may be able to swap. Money-wise I will spend the last of the generously-donated funds from 2 years ago in sending out this first wave of Steve Lowman tapes with their prepaid return special delivery envelopes. So I guess when I start getting these back from the rippers I'll be coming back to the group cap in hand for more donations before I can send out the second wave. Cheers! Rocker From tb666xx@...

In-Reply-To: <1a0a53.734db261.39b3cb08@...> Message-ID: Hi Rocker and all. Thanks for the email Rocker. One or two things to note. Apologies for long post. Caution re. spelling of artist and track names on the cassette inserts. Although the track lists are very comprehensive, the spellings are all best guesses. I had no idea of the real spellings. I had a system of 'Side-A' followed by 'Side-A', then 'Side-B' followed by 'Side-B'. The purpose was to minimise the unrecorded airtime gaps, and I always tried to do this immediately at the end of a track to try to catch the beginning of the next one. Segues sometimes messed this up, and it meant I probably lost some classic end-of-track comments. The main disadvantage for ripping and sorting of cassette sides into complete shows is that it will not be so easy to identify the sequence of sides. Also, some sides will include the end of one show and the start of another, too, and this may not always be obvious. I think I tried to indicate with a line between tracks, or some means like that. There ought to be a complete, uninterrupted year, either 1992 or 1993. I had an ambition to make a mix tape of all the fastest dance tracks in a year, so the inserts have a code system for dance tracks of various speeds. I made the fastest-dance mix tape, and very good it was, too, but then I lost it a few years later. Doh! Some of the tapes may well be mix tapes. Almost all pre-1990 are incomplete shows. I used to start recording every track and then stop and rewind if I decided not to record it. At some point in the early 90s I decided I could make better mix tapes by recording entire shows and then later choose tracks for mix tapes. Hence the complete shows, culminating in complete coverage for a considerable period. I wrote to apologise to Peelie when I stopped regular recording, telling him I very much hoped other people were recording the complete shows as every single one was such an absolute gem. A friend later told me he had met John at a festival and John had said he had been amused by me apologising for not listening to all his shows - but he also said he kind of liked that! I have already shared some mix tapes, and I'm not sure whether they are included in the boxes. Rocker, make sure you check for tape-to-tape copies of early-90's mix tapes. I used to make one master and then often recorded some more from that one to give to friends, etc. I think I tried to keep all of those out of these boxes, but I'm not sure whether any will be lurking in there. Good luck Rippers! Do a good job! All the best, Steve From slo.coche@... Sat Sep 4 22:26:15 2010 From: slo.coche@...

We should probably exclude pre-1977 from this exercise as I know he did play a lot of prog rock in the days before I started to listen, and also exclude his Jakki Brambles sit-in shows when he had to play the least bad tracks of the daytime playlists. And we should all know about his playful dalliance with the Sheena Easton phenomenon. So, my nomination is for the show of 2nd January 1980, when he played 'Bloody Well Right' by Supertramp.

The theory is - if you have a product or a service that would appeal to Internet users that are interested in John Peel AND Jennifer Lopez or John Peel AND Jessica Ennis you can see the frequency and sites that link the two celebrities (click on the People Mentioned bar charts). Hence the link to Ads by Google. Don't base your new business on this though, as a casual investigation will show that the links are non-existent, the pairs are just mentioned in the same newspaper or magazine column, but not in a linked context.

Sure it's recounted in Ken's book or similar, and will be on the wiki at some point... Adam was a big indie fave back in the day (Car Trouble, etc) and even the first CBS single (Kings Of The Wild Frontier) was mega in the (Liverpool at least) punk clubs when it came out.

I had forgotten their 'Joe' - what a great little song that is. Wikipedia tells me Trixie's Big Red Motorbike did White Horses in a 1983 session, which I'm sure is the one I remember preferring and would like to hear again.

I've just had a listen to the forthcoming 400 box rip and compared it with your tracklisting. It would appear that you've transposed Sides A and B of your recording. It should begin with Dandy Livingstone and end with the Tea Set. The 400 box version does not capture the very start of the show, but contains an additional 3 songs before Dandy L. comes on (The Stiffs, The Chords & Billy Fury). Sorry! For anyone interested, I've got just 3 tapes left to rip from my batch of 23. They're all C120s. I left them 'til last. Dr M. --- On Wed, 8/9/10, hangthedj@... wrote: From: hangthedj@...

Would mostly definitely welcome an opportunity to do a new transfer. I don't have the "rarities" CD specifically, but I have most of the actual rarities themselves in one form or another. Most of this is about the fun of tracking things down for a band which never had that much of a following - they fell between more stools than is reasonable for anybody - but it's surprising what turns up when you look hard. --- In peel@yahoogroups.com, "Andrew" wrote: > > I've got that session but not sure if it's a directfromradio copy or tapetotape edit, mono/stereo etc. I'll try to check at the weekend (tape in loft...) > > Did you get hold of the PS 'rarities' 3cd set doing the rounds a few years back? > > --- In peel@yahoogroups.com, "Tim" wrote: > > > > I'll take that as a no then :( > > > > Anyway.... > > > > http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XRLLCXHK > > > > is a link to the current state of the art for the transfer of this session - there is some more of it in similar quality and if anyone's interested I can make it all available for archival.

(Roger Carruthers) Date: Thu, 09 Sep 2010 17:58:46 +0100 Subject: [peel] Steve Lowman tapes In-Reply-To: Message-ID: Ripped my first one from this batch today ­ a definite quality improvement over the 400 box, but like yourself, I don¹t really have time to update the Wiki via those track sheets. I¹m sure folks will be interested in the Kershaw stuff, though. Just wondering how we identify these tapes ­ is there a spreadsheet yet? I noticed on the last batch of the 400 tapes I had, that Rocker had actually marked the tapes with their ID nos, bless Œim, and I was rather selfishly hoping he¹d do the same with these. I can barely read some of the markings on the first tape I picked out, so I¹m not sure how to identify them - and I got into some terrible muddles even when the tapes were clearly marked with a number!

Ah - I think Peel always referred to this as "the one with the bells on it". Which is now how I refer to it too, if pressed. I'm not sure we've had a "utter favourite tracks" thread. Though we must have done, maybe a few years ago. I have probably mentioned hearing 'Fall of Saigon' by This Heat before, but I'll do so again. Hearing that come out from under the pillow was a formative experience for sure... On another thread, Adam Ant was in Bazooka Joe and was supported by the PIstols, I'm sure, and Marco was in The Models. As a working journalist I know that I shouldn't really trust WIkipedia, but I did want to check as I thought Marco's band was maybe The Cortinas.

"Funnily" enough, when a certain Mr Rotten met a Mr Anderson of said Tull combo, the former told the latter that he loved the 'Aqualung' album. Of course, Lydon couldn't have said that during the punk 'killing fields' era ! Looking back now, hippy/prog and punk were both brimming with youthful idealism and naivety - I enjoy both types depending on my mood -it's all "rock". Peely certainly enjoyed both - I'm sure he played quite a bit of BJH in 1977 ... A lot of the old rock (and folk-rock) bands celebrated our glorious British countryside eg Steeleye, Floyd's "Animals" and Tull's "Song From The Wood" ; I love hearing farm animals in reggae/dub as well.

JP's cockiness of late relating to Liverpool FC's recent domination of English football has been tempered by a listener's letter.

Archive session from Thin Lizzy, 1974 and a repeat of the recent Magazine session.

John is reading out an email he's had from 'Dead Man Jones'. `"Am I the only person to find it astonishing not to find anything from Muse in the [All Time Festive] Fifty, especially after the play that you and Steve [Lamacq] have given the band". `Well as Anita the producer, who's sitting behind me, and Lynn the office junior who's sitting behind her can confirm, we've never played a single track by Muse on the radio. I'm afraid Dead Man Jones you have got that fantastically and spectacularly wrong. Not a single Muse track has been played on this programme.' I think that makes the position clear.

I understand that he was invited to get together with the rest of the band to do some recording not so long ago, but it didn't work out, so he's not part of their current line-up, which is a shame because I'm sure it would do him some good. I saw them at Ashton Court festival back in 70-something, long before I knew John, and all I can remember is that they were pretty startling, Cheers Roger P.S.

I was doing some mind numbingly boring DIY and for this, rather than listen to music I shove some old radio comedies onto my MP3 player. Today was the turn of Anthony Aloysius St John Hancock downloaded many moons ago from Napster (those were the days). I suddenly heard John Peel's dulcet tones in the 1st minute of this 45 minute documentary announcing the famous address of 23 Railway Cuttings, East Cheam and the rest was blank. I tried speeding it up in Audacity and the rest of this recording was of John introducing Jeff Mills and the subsequent session at Maida Vale. Anyone have the entire documentary?

All my ripping has been completed, apart from the very last side of the very last tape, which decided not to work for me. What are the chances eh? I should be getting some assistance with that one, but in the meantime I'll start getting the shows out. Stat fans might like to know that in my batch are 11 complete shows, one 90 minute chunk of another, a further 5 individual show recordings of 70+ mins and 4 other smaller recordings. Or put another way, there's about 31 hours of prime Peel to share. For today, here's two complete shows from December 1979. Show date: 12 December 1979 Session: Flys (#3, rpt) Wiki: http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/12_December_1979 Note: The first hour of this show has been in circulation for a while, in rather shrill FM mono and with a low sample rate. Also note, there was a severe loss of reception during the Scritti Politti track for about 90 seconds, so I've done a bit of work to normalise the volume where it goes awry (round about the 45 minute mark). There's also a fine reggae record from Mystic Eyes to look forward to hearing. Show date: 13 December 1979 Session: Members (#2, rpt) Wiki: http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/13_December_1979 Note: I previously shared the second hour of the show immediately after I'd ripped it. Due to an administrative error (cough), I hadn't realised that the 400 box recording had captured the entire show. So here it is in full. All shows will be uploaded to my folder on the moo server. Sorry, links aren't on the wiki yet because it's late and my brain hurts. But you can browse to the folder if you log into the server. Dr Mango From so_it_goes_2512@...

Great to start on another collection - following on from the initial 400 Box and assorted others since then. Also many thanks indeed to Steve Lowman for providing the materials and for Rocker for again acting as central HQ, despite the many demands on his time. Roughly on the pattern of the original 400 Box, I've started a couple of new pages on the wiki to try and keep track on the new collection, which I've called the "SL Tapes" (after consultations with Steve L and Rocker). Here are the links: http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/SL_Tapes http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/SL_Tapes_%28tapes%29 What I'm thinking at the moment is to open up the tape pages with the links for the time being. Then maybe people here can help out by opening pages new tracklisting (for shows) or mixtape (for compilations) and help put the pages together. (See Help section on the wiki menu for a few hints on how to do this). I know it's not possible for everyone to get involved with ripping tapes, due to time, equipment or location issues, but your help on the wiki would be much appreciated for this group project. Please get in touch with me off-list if you'd like to help catalogue Steve L's tapes, but you're not sure exactly where to start. The wiki is not as hard as you may think... On another wiki/Steve L matter, I recently started a page on there with a postcard from Peel to Steve L. Details here: http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/Postcards I don't know if anyone else here has similar that they would like to share, but if so maybe they could on this page.

While not to everyone's taste - there is quite a lot of LWIII. Songwriters' Circle On: BBC 4 Friday 1st October 2010 22:00 to 23:00 Richard Thompson, Suzanne Vega, Loudon Wainwright. Filmed at London's intimate Bush Hall, singer-songwriters Richard Thompson, Suzanne Vega and Loudon Wainwright perform their classics, chat about their work and collaborate musically. Thompson performs songs from his 40-year solo career like I Feel So Good and Vincent Black Lightning, Vega reprises songs that made her name such as Marlene on the Wall and Luka, while Wainwright reaches into his catalogue for songs like Be Careful There's a Baby in the House and One Man Guy. Followed by a repeat of BBC Four Sessions On: BBC 4 Saturday 2nd October 2010 00:00 to 01:00 Loudon Wainwright III. Series of unique concerts featuring musicians from around the world. Loudon Wainwright III plays tracks from his latest album Here Come The Choppers alongside such classics as One Man Guy and Hard Day on the Planet to an enthusiastic audience. Footage shot during his recent British tour is at once hilarious and moving, revealing a complex and talented character who has spent decades turning everyday personal matters into public art. All preceded by Singer-Songwriters at the BBC On: BBC 4 Friday 1st October 2010 21:00 to 22:00 Compilation which unlocks the BBC vaults to explore the burgeoning singer-songwriter genre that exploded at the dawn of the 1970s and became one of the definining styles of that decade. Featuring Elton John, James Taylor, Cat Stevens, Harry Nilsson, Sandy Denny, Steve Goodman, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Judee Sill, Jackson Browne, Neil Diamond, Tim Hardin, Joan Armatrading and Tom Waits, as well as more commercial hits from the likes of Terry Jacks and Gilbert O'Sullivan.

In spite of my preference of the mainly weird in music. His "Motel Blues" is probably one of my favourite tracks of all time. A beautiful and poignant song which served as a soundtrack to some bouts of mooching around my bedroom after being dumped and a couple of episodes of unrequieted love in my youth.
