[peel] Re: Eddie Berlin BFBS Tapes

[Stuart Brooks]

The late April and 1st May shows are also very interesting. As documented on the May show, a couple of possible precursors to the Die Toten Hosen incident, firstly John says he has now stopped playing English Drinking songs due to their swearing, even if it is swearing in English, implying he had already done so on BFBS. Secondly he said he might save the bottle of Bommerlunder he was given by the band for treating Cat's boils but he wouldn't be drinking it. At least Morrissey didn't take the luke warm response Peel gave their debut play on the 1st May show to heart..... But it is a surprise to hear it!
