Tracklisting[]

File a

(JP: 'This thrilling music introduces another edition of John Peel's Music On BFBS, but before we get started, a word from our sponsor.')
(JP: 'The doctor's told me I've got to melt away a bit as well.')

File b

(JP: 'I remain unconvinced by compact discs, I must admit. People say to me, "Ah, but you don't get any surface noise." But I quite like surface noise: I think that life has surface noise, y'know, and something about compact discs, life is somehow drained from them, and I'm always astonished by the fact that the programmes that Bob Harris does for BBC Radio One are always billed as, "With music mainly on compact disc," as though that somehow was a recommendation. I mean, if the music is muck, it doesn't matter whether it's on compact disc or whether it's pressed on tarmac, y'know, it's still muck. But anyway, there you are, I know I'm obviously in a minority on this.')
(JP: 'It'll be interesting to see if that shifts units, as they say in the record industry, in the quantities that their previous records have done.')
