Thanks as always to Branko for extending the disk space on Mooo once more,
so that we can share these amazing Derby Box recordings. There may well be
an avalanche now that Stuart has made a start on his batch too..

Today from me we have:

1 hour and 35 minutes of 18 September 1978
<http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/18_September_1978>
A previously unshared show with sessions from Doctor Feelgood and Stiff
Little Fingers
Mooo
<http://mooo.peelwiki.com/dl/RobF/John%20Peel%201978%20Tapes/1978-09-18/>

1 hours and 45 minutes of the 25 September 1978
<http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/25_September_1978>
Already partially available from the 400 Box - this is the show where he
plays Teenage Kicks twice, but the taper didn't like it and so taped over
that segment?! The show then carries on to the end.(NB the missing section
is luckily in the 400 Box version for posterity)
Sessions from Motorhead  and The Skids
Mooo
<http://mooo.peelwiki.com/dl/RobF/John%20Peel%201978%20Tapes/1978-09-25/>

Then we have a 15 minute selection of some tracks from 20 September 1978
<http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/20_September_1978>
This is what he taped over the Teenage Kicks section with - he compiled his
favourite tracks from this show - and then erased the rest of that
tape Original
tracklisting was here
<http://mooo.peelwiki.com/dl/RobF/Derby%20Box%20Tracklistings/ErasedTape018.jpg>
(it
also included the end of the 18 Sept 78 show). Some of his other favourite
tracks from this show are compiled on Tape020 when I get there. Sessions
from Prag Vec and Whitecats. It's a previously unshared show, so a shame
that it was edited down like this.
Mooo
<http://mooo.peelwiki.com/dl/RobF/John%20Peel%201978%20Tapes/1978-09-20/>

1 hour and 12 minutes of another unshared show from 28 September 1978
<http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/28_September_1978>
Sessions from Solid Senders (featuring Wilko Johnson) and Viv Stanshall -
although Viv's Rawlinson End piece must have been towards the end of the
show, therefore is missing from this tape.

I've also managed to date the previously undated two tracks from DB010.
These were also compiled from a tape which he then erased (thankfully it
looks like he stopped doing this by about Tape040). They are from
13 September 1978 <http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/13_September_1978>
Sessions from Hot Water and Roy Harper. Original tracklisting was here
<http://mooo.peelwiki.com/dl/RobF/Derby%20Box%20Tracklistings/ErasedTape015.jpg>
and
again, some more tracks from this show are compiled on Tape020 when I get
there.
