Now it seemed to me that things have changed so much over the past couple of years that the Festive 50 might be a little different – I hope it will be anyway, although I don’t want to prejudice your decisions of course. So if you would like to write down on a postcard or in a letter your favourite three tracks of all time in order, and send it to me, John Peel, c/o BBC Radio One, London W1, whatever the address is. And if you write on the front of it somewhere “Festive 50” so that I know and put it aside and we’ll work it all out you see and come up with a festive 50 to broadcast over the Christmas holidays. Are you with me still? I hope so.”) * Penetration: Nostalgia (LP – Moving Targets) Virgin * The Edge: Macho Man (single) Albion (JP: “And if you were watching the programme, the Omnibus television programme last night, you would have seen the famous Radio One playlist committee meeting in session. And in the course of this meeting, John Cooper Clarke was described as a “weirdy”. You may have noticed that. Well, here’s that well-known weirdy … And hey, wasn’t Dickie Lee Torpid (Dave Lee Travis) just huggable?”) * John Cooper Clarke: I Don’t Want To Be Nice (LP – Disguise In Love) CBS (JP reads out preview for tomorrow (Saturday)’s Rock On programme.) * Lene Lovich: Lucky Number (LP – Stateless) Stiff * Lene Lovich: Sleeping Beauty (LP – Stateless) Stiff * Lene Lovich: Home (LP – Stateless) Stiff - continues on next file (2) (JP: "The best I think of the four new LPs issued by Stiff to coincide with this tour.") * Prophets / Yabby You: Plague (LP – Beware Dub) Grove * Bernie Torme Band: I’m Not Ready (single) Jet (JP: “A Bit of a heavy metal classic coming up next.”) * Temple City Kazoo Orchestra: Whole Lotta Love (12” EP) Rhino (JP: “What do you make of that, Derek Jewel?”) * Spherical Objects: If I Could Choose (Oh Babe) (LP – Past And Parcel) Object (JP: “Now Fast Records have established a fairly wonderful track so far I think, with Mekons, 2.3 and the Human League, and their latest release features Gang Of Four, and all three tracks from the thing are excellent, so I shall play you them all.”) * Gang Of Four: Damaged Goods (7”) Fast * Gang Of Four: Armalite Rifle (7”) Fast * Gang Of Four: Love Like Anthrax (7”) Fast (JP: “There’s a band that sent us a demo tape about I suppose four of five months ago which wasn’t terribly good. They’ve obviously improved a great deal since then.”) * Errol Dunkley: Differentah (12” single) Arawak * unknown artist: Original Pipleline (LP - Original Pipleline) - partially announced before tape cuts out
