Mystery Sessions

[dgmccarthy@...]

Stumbled across a page listing the contents of the first tape (it was on the back of something else; must have been scrap paper). 

 Combined with Martin's notes I can expand on the details for those sessions.  For those interested:

 As the Richard Skinner's dates are weekdays, I bow to Martin's recall. Richard did work hard! Martin also listed the Purple Helmets as 8/11/89, so I may have picked it up on repeat.
 

 The Grip session was one I worked on and it looks like Martyn Parker may have produced and engineered.
 

 It appears Martyn may also have worked on the Purple Helmets session with Ted de Bono.
 

 My Amstrad print-out is a little erratic so I don't know if I can trust where it lists A Certain Ratio and Dennis Greaves as being broadcast on the same evening.  I didn't get an exact date for Summerhill.
 

 I still can't find any info on The Dark!
