    With Peel sessions being released by lables other than Strange Fruit to this day, it's a crime that this one was never released. Would make a lovely 10" together with the Kershaw session.

    some songs are like diamonds in the dust, yet others are like the dust itself. I missed the 100 gig but was there at ground zero back in 80'.Dan is still alive- gotta get some juice out of him somehow. when the PIPER appears is its glory then there will be a new nest for Treacy to continue his conversation with the world! And Yes Jowe, I believe Mike is planning some kind of candy Floss cabin git together. Be Fine to meet you beachside in St Leonards Feb or March. Bless master Treacy for building this Beautifully ,slightly dysfuntional, team of battered musical Gondolas .Empire made his santa monica call to me late October just gone and lashed off about a love of
    a few domestic fittings over the blower, "Fuck man, I've even got my own house with a fucking lift in it (prestige!) and George clooney is my effing neighbour!" Thats Mark 'Empire' Shepherd alright, nice that the stars of the firmament are all still in place- go grab it Mark. electrical failure in New Mills on route to Manchester gig (81) still endures as an episode of pure surrealism- when we made the gig late the punters had gone home`! hey mr, have you still got copy of the wham label I drew? This session was some months before I joined I guess- Bernie Beef Ox.

      Awesome Band! & Peel Session! Im not very familiar with Television Personalities from the U.K? Or Manchester London? Unfortunately? However? I really like this Band! & Peel Session! I've heard this Band before many times back in the 1980's & they slipped past my radar for some reason? Do they have any more Peel Sessions? Peel Session Albums? Or CD Singles Collections? I should look for? & purchase to add to my Record & CD Collection?
