John's 40th Birthday - 30th August 1979

[Humphrey]

>>The Fall were featured on Granada TV before the first Peel Session 

Late 77, the seminal "So It Goes" hosted by the late, great A.H Wilson ! MES very nervous/twitchy (I know the feeling) whilst being interviewed, a short clip of "Industrial Estate" live (I think).
I bought the "Witch Trials" single at the time for the amazing b-side, "Various Times" ! MES, like so many others, owes his "career" to Peely of course. Btw, I bet Joe Strummer's smiling down at the Libyan revolution !
