Whenever my high school friend went to England, to visit his grandparents, I would give him a stack of blank cassettes and tell him to tape as many as he could. I learned about so many life changing bands via this method.

I did the same thing with my former childhood best friend (now husband) when I moved away from San Francisco. Those were special days and especially wonderful means of discovering new music

My Aunt lives in the Netherlands, she sent tapes all of the time!

Long live the Weddoes!! One of my favourite bands coupled with the Peel Sessions - Absolute magic!!

heard near me in the 80's / 90's in the usa. "hey do you like (name)?" "i dunno, they have a peel session?"

Great session. Growing up in the States, during the 80s, Peel Sessions had an air of mystery and whenever one would surface, I would try to hear it (bootlegs/strange fruit eps, etc). Your channel, is my teenage Anglophile’s dream come true!

bloody brilliant - good honest rock n roll

[@cockatoomagnet583]

Great band.

I suppose it could be said that this group would definately succumb to being Indie in genre,content quality and lyrically.

"Give my love to Kevin" ... omg so hilariously cringey.
