Tonight’s selection is a variety of Peel-related music:
First up, this was not a Festive Fifty entry, but it was a request earlier in the week, so cheers to Tom at Indie mp3 for this:
Shop Assistants -Ace Of Spades (Peel Session).’ mp3
Another band that seem impossible to track down, so cheers for these…
Mighty Mighty -‘Is There Anybody Out There?’ mp3 (1986 Festive Fifty no.44)
Public Enemy -‘You’re Gonna Get Yours (Terminator X Getaway version).’ mp3 (1987 Festive Fifty no.38)
The Fall -‘Lucifer Over Lancashire.’ mp3 (1986 Festive Fifty no.37) (apparently the ‘Theology mix’ is a joke. I knew that.)
Some lost Smiths classics, including one of my favourite tracks of theirs ever, Sheila Take a Bow:
Smiths -‘Sweet And Tender Hooligan.’ mp3 (1987 Festive Fifty no.23)
Smiths -‘Sheila Take a Bow.’ mp3 (1987 Festive Fifty no.34)
Jesus and Mary Chain did pretty well in the Festive Fifty between 1984 and 1988, though they cropped up again in the nineties, too:
Jesus and Mary Chain -‘Kill Surf City.’ mp3 (1987 Festive Fifty no.39)
Jesus and Mary Chain -‘Nine Million Rainy Days.’ mp3 (1987 Festive Fifty no.41)
Madder Rose did well in ’93 and managed a brace of entries in 1994 too:
Madder Rose -‘Car Song.’ mp3 (1994 Festive Fifty no.19)
Madder Rose -‘Panic On.’ mp3 (1994 Festive Fifty no.35)
Thanks to everyone who has helped me locate tracks. You rock.
You know what I’m going to ask now, don’t you?
*weary groans*
That’s right! I’m on the scrounge for stuff I still cannot find…
From 1994:
That Dog -‘One summer Night.’
Orbital -‘Are We Here.’
Salt Tank -‘Charged Up.’
R.O.C. -‘Girl with A Crooked Eye.’
