I think the mix tapes are largely from different shows to the unedited ones,
and are the ones that the handwritten tracklistings are for. So hopefully no
duplication. These are concentrated in 1989. It looks like the yearless
tapes are unedited as there is only one date per tape.

 

There are a few completely non-peel related (like the concert bootlegs and
the Hi Tech tape)  but really just a handful.

 

Anyway all will gradually become clear!

 

Yes Rocker looks after the funds, so if you make direct contact he will
reimburse all (or if you prefer, as you suggest, most) of your expense.

When I picked the tapes up from Rich he mentioned that, included in the
bundle were some mix tapes, which I took to mean they contained his
favourites from the unedited show tapes. (On his original post I think he
just listed the unedited shows). So I think there will be some duplication
of material within the 216, though that might help if you have quality
issues with some of the cassettes. I did play one of the mix tapes and it
did have Peely's intro and outro to each track. The mix tapes are probably
the ones you mention that have a date but not the year (I did try and work
out the naming convention on the mix tapes but it flummoxed me - but then
again I failed to even count them properly...)

I spent £45.90 on postage (24.50+21.40) and it would be good to get some of
that back (don't mind leaving some of it as a donation to the group). Is it
Rocker that holds the funds?

Looking forward to reliving 1989-92 over the next few months.

Cheers
