  • Tracklisting below is courtesy of the John Peel Papers. Many thanks to the uploader to the John Peel Papers at Facebook for sharing the information. [1]
  • Transcriber says, “I once bought a Carpettes 7" (I don't mean it) & when I got home, sitting inside the sleeve was Menace's GLC/I'm Civilized (Small Wonder 5) - a great punk surprise & I still have it.”
  • John Peel Papers suggests the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band tracks were from a session, but they don’t appear to come from any known one by the band. In The Peel Sessions, Ken Garner lists the Carpettes session as the only one on the show. It appears likely that Peel played the Bonzos' tracks from the "History Of The Bonzos" compilation, which contains all of them.
  • Both sides of the latest Generation X single are played.
