Comments
  • Peel mentions that after last night's programme, he decided to see the Cranes at Borderline in Oxford Street, but when he went there, he found out that it was cancelled and was not happy, so stayed at his friend's place, whose name was Lesley. He then plays a record called 'Where Is Lesley?' by the Bachelor Pad. After that, he plays a sample of the next track on the album called Eeek!, which he says that Lesley may sound like.
  • Peel plays a track from the Breeders covering the Beatles' Happiness Is A Warm Gun. He plays two tracks from their Pod album.
  • Peel plays two tracks from the Hit The North compilation album.
  • Peel plays a football record at the end of the show supporting the Scottish national team for the 1990 World Cup. The song is called Scotland Scotland by Rabble FC featuring Andy Stewart.

Footnotes
  1. An example of Songa! #2 can be found on the Archive.org website here
  2. Peel maybe thinking of Norman Hunter who played for Leeds United. There is no record of a Terry Hunter ever being in the Leeds squad.
