[peel] Top Gear 4 Feb 68

[Alan Ford]

Excellent stuff.
The Beefheart session is one the 2 'Lost Sessions' repeated on 6th/7th
March 2001 after an unknown benefactor supplied the BBC with recordings.
Maybe they're from the same source, in which case 12th May 1968 (the 2nd
session date) might also become available.
