Got as far as I can ... and need help with just three things on this and  they are pretty simple I think!

All on Side B


First is a cocteau twins track - I loved them dearly and largely because of the soundscape they made but lyrics were always a mystery to me . Never really managed to hook on to their individual songs(apart from Pearly Dew Drops) but someone who knows their work well will recognise this. 

There is also a sophisticated boom boom track on here. Sadly they only released one thing on vinyl but did a couple of Peel sessions earlier in teh 80s. Can't find the track they released on this in 84: http://www.discogs.com/Various-The-Girls-Cant-Help-It-A-Modern-Girl-Group-Compilation/release/2081275 called the only one. If its not that I'm sure someone out there has session tracks (maybe someone did a repeat of the session which would be odd or possibly Karl has mislabelled his tape) as someone has done a page on the wiki. http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/Sophisticated_Boom_Boom I would like the sessions if people do have them  as they sound my kind of thing. Strangely enough there is another Swiss band of teh same name from 1982 but think this track is by teh Glasgow band.

The third thing is a couple of JAMC tracks - they are both on psychocandy and also session #1 BUT it was session #2 that was broadcast in March 1985. I have been a bit lazy and not dug out my copy of psychocandy to play - largely as my record player is in a different place to my pc... the date of the tape may be wrong or he/the Kid may have played two tracks from album. If someone has the first session digitally (or indeed psychocandy) they may be able to tell the diff.

As to which bits of this are Peel tracks and which are the Kid I am going to hazard a guess! There is a wild card here as Janice Long appears in a snippet of sound and the New model Army Tracks are from a session for her. the del Amitri session here is from 27 march 1985 (if karl labelled his tape correctly as it wasn't rebroadcast til April) so I guess that that Peel runs from new model army album track to the end! I know he played Simple Minds American as I have a mix tape with him playing it in 1981 and I reckon he used the excuse of Breakfast Club soundtrack coming out to give it another spin - he often put his track listings together in taht sort of way. So there may be no Kid J on this. However this is all conjecture and his transatlantic cousin could have don the same as perhaps Simpleminds 1985 and Bronski Beat were a bit more KidJ 

Anyway i am sure Stuart will sort this out and I hav espent too long thinking about it!!!
