Comments
  • Peel doesn't mention the track title of Test Department for obvious reasons - although an Austrian band [1] influenced by Test Department took it as their name.
  • Peel plays a cover of Ben E. King's Stand By Me by Phillip James, little realising that the original would soon rechart internationally for multiple reasons.
  • The playlist includes vintage tracks from a variety of genres - rock'n'roll and rockabilly (Jerry Lee Lewis, Jo Ann Campbell), 1960s soul-jazz (Jimmy McGriff), 1940s modern jazz (Dexter Gordon) and reggae (Burning Spear).
  • Peel mentions it is Flossie's birthday tomorrow.
  • Peel mistakenly calls the Jasmine Minks track Force's Favourite, instead of Force's Network.
  • The opening link and part of the opening track of this show can be heard on File 2, taken from the first edition (4 May 1986) of Radio 1 More Time, a programme which reviewed the week on the station (this was hosted in turns by most of the station's presenters, and Peel himself fronted it on a number of occasions).
  • Files 3 & 4 are from the same tape but the Youtube version originally shared would not work due to auto copyright protection of the Cabaret Voltaire track, so a shortened version is available on YouTube and the full version has been uploaded to the Mooo
