A new batch of Derby Box tapes to start your Christmas countdown..

A complete, previously unshared show from 13 November 1978
<http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/13_November_1978>
Sessions from X Ray Spex and Matumbi
Mooo
<http://mooo.peelwiki.com/dl/RobF/John%20Peel%201978%20Tapes/1978-11-13/>

The first 1 hour 10 minutes  from the previously unshared show on 20
November 1978 <http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/20_November_1978> and then
another 20 minutes or so of edited highlights from the rest of the show.
The taper erased the full last section of the show from tape DB033 and
dubbed his favourite bits to DB030 (more of that further down*)
Sessions from Swell Maps and XTC.
Mooo
<http://mooo.peelwiki.com/dl/RobF/John%20Peel%201978%20Tapes/1978-11-20/>

A nearly complete show (1 hr 50), previously unshared from 27 November 1978
<http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/27_November_1978>
Sessions from Lene Lovich and X Ray Spex

The first 1 Hour 20 minutes of 29 November 1978
<http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/29_November_1978>
Wailing Cocks and John Cooper Clarke in session. 55 minutes of the end of
this show were shared from the 400 Box, so this completes up the missing
first half
Mooo
<http://mooo.peelwiki.com/dl/RobF/John%20Peel%201978%20Tapes/1978-11-29/>

*DB030 (along with DB020 and DB040 which I hope to pick up this week) is
the  edited highlights of a number of erased tapes - for which we still
have the original handwritten tracklists for posterity. These are all
marked on the Derby Box Wiki Page <http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/Derby_Box> as
ERASED - and the tracklisting scans are on Mooo
<http://mooo.peelwiki.com/dl/RobF/Derby%20Box%20Tracklistings/> prefixed
with ErasedTapennn.jpg

So DB030 contains edited versions of

31 October 1978 <http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/31_October_1978> 19 mins taken
from ErasedTape029
<http://mooo.peelwiki.com/dl/RobF/Derby%20Box%20Tracklistings/ErasedTape029.jpg>
