[peel] Begging letter...

[RobF]

To whet people's appetites - the new batch of ~260 tapes AKA The Derby Box
contains

35 tapes from 1978 (starting from July)
90 tapes from 1979
80 tapes from 1980
50 tapes from 1981
12 tapes from 1982
3 tapes from 1983

With a smattering of Friday Rock Show segments in there too (I know there
are some fans amongst us..)

All are in fantastic quality, recorded on a proper hi-fi deck with an
external aerial

Here is a sample

An inferior recording of this same show was already ripped from the
original 400 box, so interested listeners can compare and contrast
