Sessions

Tracklisting

(JP: 'I suppose if you go out and buy a fresh copy of that, it could help and send John Denver into outer space and in fact I think I should be sending New Order a considerable list of people songs to copy in future, uhm, Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney, Phil Collins, get them all in outer space.')
(JP: 'I was looking through Sounds and they have something called The Awesome Ten Most Requested Songs, sorry, can't read my own handwriting, The Most Requested Songs At Club Awesome, The Venue, New Cross, London. Number 1 this week is Robinson Crusoe - Cud, New Fast Automatic Daffodils 2, Teenage Kicks 3, Ballad Of John And Yoko - Teenage Fanclub 4, Saint Etienne - Kiss And Make Up 5, Taste by Ride 6, Not Listening 7, that's Snuff of course, T.F.A. by Silverfish 8 and this is at number 9')
(JP: 'Not perhaps the most profound version of the old favourite from yester year, but worth playing to you I think')
