In this week’s show we recalled a Peel session from the Tom Robinson Band, Annabella Lwin causing a stir, an unapologetic Robert Fripp and when Morrisey got hit with a bottle. Plus, Whispering Bob Harris introduced the Teardrop Explodes.
We remembered the fall of the Berlin Wall, Anna-Maria Williams and Jerry Lee Lewis. Plus wished a happy Birthday to Labbi Siffre and The Big Figure.
We also tested your musical knowledge on lyrics from Jarvis Cocker, and when Rod The Mod and U2 had #1 records.
