- Comments
- After the first Crisis session track, Peel comments, "well I must say that of all the contemporary varieties of rock music, it's this basic and direct variety that I like the best myself."
- The Siouxsie and the Banshees track is played from an increasingly crackly acetate of the as-yet unreleased "Scream" LP.
- Peel plays the final three tracks from the latest Captain Beefheart LP ('Bat Chain Puller'), having played the first three from side b the previous evening.
