(DuffPaddy: from torrent remaster version 3) * This is a remaster of John Peel's final Perfumed Garden show on Radio London, on 14th August 1967. The following day, the new Marine Offences Act took effect, forcing the pirate stations to close down. Peel would join newly-created BBC pop station Radio One shortly afterwards, where he would remain for 37 years until his untimely death last year. * It was the height of the Summer of Love, and Peelie was still sounding like a posh, rather shy young hippy after returning to the UK from his brief radio stint in America. Peel's eclectic choice of music is much in evidence in this special 5½-hour final show, which kicked off at midnight. * This remaster has been put together by Guy Brown at U-SPACES (site currently closed, archive link

  • (DuffPaddy: from torrent remaster version 3) * This is a remaster of John Peel's final Perfumed Garden show on Radio London, on 14th August 1967. The following day, the new Marine Offences Act took effect, forcing the pirate stations to close down. Peel would join newly-created BBC pop station Radio One shortly afterwards, where he would remain for 37 years until his untimely death last year. * It was the height of the Summer of Love, and Peelie was still sounding like a posh, rather shy young hippy after returning to the UK from his brief radio stint in America. Peel's eclectic choice of music is much in evidence in this special 5½-hour final show, which kicked off at midnight. * This remaster has been put together by Guy Brown at U-SPACES (site currently closed, archive link restored; mailing list here). Tapes of the show have been upgraded with high-fidelity masters of the songs Peel played, so only the links are in whiny Radio London quality. * This is Revision 3 of the remaster, completed in September of 2005, which restores all of the Peel links that were missing in previous versions, and corrects some running order mistakes. If you have a version of this and want to check if you need to upgrade, the best way is probably to see if you have Simon & Garfunkel's "Sparrow" on disc 4. That's new for this version. * Artwork and sleevenotes are included as Word documents (also available here). They're designed to fit in slimline jewelcases (the ones used for CD singles). There's a lot more information about the show, and the reconstruction project, in Guy's excellent sleevenotes (online earlier version (1), (2)). (Additional) * After being sent an 1994 article in Mojo magazine (issue 7) that featured a partial tracklisting of the historic 14 August 1967 show, Peel introduced a new Perfumed Garden spot on his regular BBC shows to replay some tracks. This started on 22 January 2002, as outlined by Duff Paddy on Kat's Karavan. * In October 2006, as part of "Keeping It Peel" events, the BBC broadcast a series of extracts from this historic show. Here's more details from the BBC official site. The BBC also gave some additional background on the reconstruction job undertaken by Guy Brown and others, as you can read here.
