When he died, I made a 4 disc compilation of session tracks for my half-brother, who's 10 years younger than me and didn't really know about Peel. Limited to one song per artist except for the Fall. Nothing pre-punk though, although the Can peel sessions are very good. The dates show how much great stuff was being recorded for him, especially in 77-80.
