* After playing the Gang Of Four track, Peel speculates that it might be 'chartbound...well, one can dream'. Ironically, it sold so well that they were invited to appear on Top Of The Pops, but stormed off after being asked to sing the word 'packets' instead of 'rubbers'. This led to a BBC ban and them being eventually dropped by EMI, who concentrated their sales efforts on a new act called [[Duran Duran]] instead. |

- 1979-06-11
- Comments
- This show is a classic for "technical issues" - two tracks played at the wrong speed and one aborted completely as the vinyl is so warped! Also describes reading a listener's letter who is incensed by the fact that Peel called Rush "boring". Wayne County is mis-typed on the running order as "Wayne Country" so Peel commends him on achieving nationhood (amongst the "other changes" he is going through!).
- After playing the Gang Of Four track, Peel speculates that it might be 'chartbound...well, one can dream'. Ironically, it sold so well that they were invited to appear on Top Of The Pops, but stormed off after being asked to sing the word 'packets' instead of 'rubbers'. This led to a BBC ban and them being eventually dropped by EMI, who concentrated their sales efforts on a new act called Duran Duran instead.
- Before playing the Barbara Cartland track he says he and Walters thought it would do listeners good to here something sincere. For more on the album this song comes from, see here.
- Three tracks from the debut album by The B-52's.
- The 400 Box version begins from the Sinceros track and continues to the end of the list. Another (edited) version from the Hinton Box adds a few tracks missing from the recording and duplicates others, but in (slightly subfusc) stereo. These are marked with a §.

File
- Name
- a) 1979-06-11 John Peel Radio 1 (incomplete).mp3
- b) BH002 JP 1979-06-11 Side A
- Length
- a) 01:33:25
- b) 00:46:59
- Other
- a) File created from T093 of the 400 Box.
- b) File created from BH002 of the Hinton Box. Many thanks to Brian and Colin.
- a) Sound quality is poor for the first 30 seconds or so and then picks up considerably. This was a hard tape to rip as it's a C120 and the spools were quite stiff. Gently squeezing the tape and performing multiple fast-forward and rewinds seemed to do the trick. The little felt pad that sits under the tape is also missing so I guess that didn't help! The first 29 minutes seem to have been taped over with the 12-06-79 show, so I assume that portion of the show is lost forever. I left the snippet of news on at the end after the pips for those who like that kind of thing!
- b) Most Peel links edited out, and the last Undertones track is unceremoniously halted: the rest of the tape is silent.
