[peel] Karl and his tapes , upload update

[egdirdle2013@...]

I think Jensen took over in the second half of 1981. I know for sure I have a May 1981 tape where Skinner is on first with a Teardrop Explodes session.
 Mike Read did the show before Peel up until the end of 1980 I think. It is possible Skinner did it for less than a year before Jensen took over.
 

 Never could quite get why Jensen was in that spot. I always felt they just gave it to anyone and told them what to play. Never really felt Jensen loved the likes of The Higsons , Killing Joke , Rip , Rig and Panic etc. But then again Richard Skinner was just the bloody newsreader before he got the gig.

 how about the ineffable Richard Skinner - thought he was always a better foil to Peel than the Kid - I think he was doing a saturday show in 1983 but I don't have a copy of the even more effable Ken's earlier book to check if he was doing sessions at this time ...

   Could have sworn I replied to this. They could be off Gary Crowley's Capital Radio Show ... outside chance.

 Cheers Karl!
  
 Just wondering if you could remember where the Lotus Eaters 1983 and Members 1982 sessions came from – there’s no sign in Ken’s In Session Tonight which makes me wonder if they might have been recorded from a commercial station.

   Hi all 
 I am just uploading one of my tapes to the Moo. Thanks to Andrew for coming round and showing me the Audacity of everything.
  
 This one is from Late July 1984 and Has Peel / Jensen and the odd dip into a soul station ( around this time it was almost subversive to be into a bit of soul... but not really )

 I didn't tidy up the 10 second gap in the middle for the tape flip and this tape is not perhaps one of the more interesting ? I just wanted to get one out there
