  • Peel seems to have taken an interest in Sakamoto's 1980 experimental electronic album B-2 Unit, which is also included in the Record Collection (and selected by John Peel Centre blog as its Hidden Gem for the letter S [1]). Despite favouring links with Japanese music and culture he does not seem to have played any Sakamoto material after that, until featuring the soundtrack to The Last Emperor in the early nineties.
