This instantly became much more appealing...
Needless to say my damascene conversion could have happened two years earlier, had I been diligently listening to Peel in the summer of 1987, rather than Guns n' Roses. It was a real thrill to discover 'Sally Cinnamon' and the Mondays track on this show, not to mention Sonic Youth before anyone in Britain had heard of them. The Ivor Cutler session is also a belter.

If you encounter too fast or too slow playback of MP3 files or if your progressbar is messed up, your MP3 files contain variable bitrate encoding. Flash isn't very good at handling these, it's best to stick to constant bitrate encoding. Also make sure to stick to a sampling frequancy that is a multitude of 11.025kHz (48kHz, for example, also poses problems)

Although the playback on Divshare sounds mental, Peelesque you might say, the actual download plays back at the right speed.
Thanks for letting me know!
Thanks again!
Haven't listened to this one yet, but I'll wager that Mekons track is Sophie:

Excellent stuff - just skimmed through so far, but the Sonic Youth track is 'Pipeline/Kill Time' and the last tune is by the mighty John Fahey, there's a neat clip of him doing that track at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYDrkG2EGwg

Thanks for all the info, and I'm glad these are bring pleasure to you.
Actually, I did some research on the Mekons track but quite wish it had been called 'soapy'.
Thanks for the blog - Peely RIP & always missed.
Could someone tell me how to d/l - never used Divshare before, do i need to join??
