The Drones - Peel session e.p


continuing the peel related reposts is this session from the drones.they started life as a manchester pub rock band in 1975 but by 1977 had reinvented themselves as a punk band.they moved to london playing at the legendary roxy club in covent garden.they also played a lot of gigs with the likes of xray spex, the vibrators and the stranglers.in december(?) of 1977 they recorded this 4 track session for mr peel at the bbc studios.i really like their storming version of the ronettes 'be my baby' which is included here.so at your next pogotastic punk party remember to play this session.enjoy and then leave a comment.thanks!

Can anyone help with a request please?

Im looking for the peel sessions recorded by The Outcasts and Rudi.the outcasts did 2 in 81 and 82 and Rudi in 81 i believe.ive seen them posted on youtube but im looking for them in mp3's. Im asking for these as i watched the film Good Vibrations last night (my DVD arrived yay!)its available here Good Vibrations DVD from Amazon and is definitely worth a watch and purchase( for those who dont know its the story of Terri Hooley and his setting up of the label/collective of the films title.a brilliant film). Anyway it reminded me that these bands had recorded sessions for Mr. Peel and try as i might i cant find them. Can anyone help fill this gap in my collection?Thanks

EDIT: Many thanks to Dirk over at http://sexy-loser.blogspot.de/ who very kindly sent me the outcasts from 82 and rudi from 81 peel sessions. Check out his blog some great Peel related stuff there and lots of other goodies.Thanks very much mate its much appreciated.
