[peel] More SL: The Kershaw Tapes

[MARK LUETCHFORD]

Looks like we may be getting whole Kershaw shows from the SL tapes. In some senses this is more valuable (heresy - wash my mouth out!) than the Peel shows as the records he played were often even more obscure and may only exist in folk/world museum collections and those of people like Andy - although did he not have to sell it when he was down on his luck so maybe he doesn't even have them anymore? Wonder if he knows this is happening (or cares?!) and may want to have a digital version of some of his collection ...

Rounding off my rips from the last batch of SL tapes that I processed, here's the Andy Kershaw bits that were part of them. One complete show was contained on the tapes in that batch, but as a treat for Kershaw fans I've been able to get my hands on the relevant rips made by other people and thus put together complete shows:

5 January 1992
Session: two live acts recorded live in Equitorial Guinea by Kershaw on his visit in December 1991.
Complete show found on tapes L202 and L203 that were ripped by me.


12 January 1992
Session: Chris Wood and Andy Cutting.
The start and end of the show were previously ripped and shared by ML from tape L067. The mid section turned up on tape L214 which I ripped, so I put all the sections together. The show contains more details of how Dave Lee Travis bizarrely came to play a soukous track on his Sunday morning programme.


23 February 1992
Session: Johnnie Johnson.
The mid section of the show turned up on tape L198 so I was able to paste it in between the start and end of the show previously ripped and shared by Weatherman Stuart from tape L159.


2 May 1992

Session: Remmy Ongala.
A section from the second hour of the show had been previously ripped and shared by Stuart from tape L147. The remaining segments were ripped by me from L204 and L212 and assembed into a whole.

All track listings can be found on my personal webspace: http://drmango.net/kershaw.htm


Coming next should be the complete Kershaw show from 21 November 1992 as I have all the sections of that waiting for assembly too.
