Good work on these Mark (4), also by our Stealth Bomber 3904, who either has a better Shazam than me or a great memory!

I’d forgotten until recently that In Session Tonight documented all of those KJ sessions so you might get the Pauline black answers there, I’m away from home so can’t access it right now.

Should have known Clock DVA, I bought Advantage based on session trax.

Enjoying the challenge set by these Karl Tapes especially the KJ shows, despite his weakness for Kid Creole, Culture Club and Haysi Fantaysee (he must have seen the latent DJs in the latter 2) there have definitely been some interesting obscurities and great sessions such as Screen 3 which to me seems stronger than their Peel sessions.

June 1982 - tried my best but still two unidentified: one a track by Clock DVA - a fine band but I don't have enough knowledge to identify. The other is a mystery in that is listed as So Few but no band of that name seems to exist.


Karl's Tape 06 - June 1982



I'm off to bed - others may wish to have a go ...

Another couple of 1982 tapes now wikified.

Karl's Tape 05 - May 1982
Side A starts with Kid Jensen show 24th May 1982 before moving onto newly available 24 May 1982 . Then another KJ show with an unknown session and possibly a late transition to a Peel show. Quite a few unknown trax though thanks to JohnPeel3904 for identifying them.


Side A looks like the evening session of 22nd June 1982. A slight mystery is the apparent Members session, which is not documented in In Session Tonight. The tracks are not the versions from the album. 4 unidentified trax. Side B moves onto edited highlights of newly available 22 June 1982 though another slight mystery is that a couple of tracks which were played that night according to the John Peel Papers, appear out of sequence earlier on Karl's Tape. The two possibilities are:
1. The said two tracks were also played on the evening session.
2. The said two tracks were squeezed in to a gap at the end of side 1 and start of side 2. This could only have happened through a tape to tape dub, as there would not have been enough time to catch the next track on a pause button first generation tape. So Karl, is option 2 a possibility? If not I'll keep those tracks as part of the Evening Session.
