Comments
  • An incomplete Peel show from BFBS missing the last 25 minutes of the programme.
  • Peel mentions influencing a reggae DJ when that person told him he heard reggae for the first time on Peel's show in 1991 by a track called The Herb from Tony Rebel.
  • Peel mentions Ipswich and a pub in north London were the only two places on his roadshow, where nobody turned up.
  • Peel says his daughter Flossie has gone down to Cornwall to see the eclipse tomorrow (The date would have been 11th August 1999 and Peel admitted his BFBS shows are pre-recorded) and goes on to mention that he saw the biggest rabbit ever yesterday outside Peel Acres on the fields. So big, the rabbit did not flee when Peel approached it, saying that the rabbit probably thought 'hey easy fat boy, you've come close enough, don't come closer.'
  • Peel plays two tracks from Solex's Pick Up LP.
