Alan Freeman presenting his BBC Radio One rock show.
While 3 files of differing lengths are available for this show, there is a link between all of them. The shortest file is a mono file. The 2hr:30min file contains the exact same audio of the shorty file, then an extra 90m which, on examination in Audacity, is heavily clipped. The longest file also contains the short file, continues with the extra 90m but this time with no clipping, followed by a patched in record which takes over soon after the audio distortions at the end of the tape.

Track Listing[]
Files 1-3 begin
”Today we’ll do it in style with Black Sabbath, Robin Trower, Rick Wakeman, Blue Oyster Cult, PFM, Alice Cooper, Al Stewart, Wishbone Ash, David Bowie and The Winkies.”
Robin Trower: Confessing Midnight (LP - For Earth Below) Chrysalis
Stackridge: No One's More Important Than The Earthworm (LP - Extravaganza) Rocket Record Company
Wishbone Ash: Where Were You Tomorrow (LP - Pilgrimage) MCA
Only the first few seconds of Wishbone Ash are on the recording as it descends into horrible print through chaos. Unless Fluff faded it out this would have been the last track of the show.
