Tracklist:
Black Dog Peel Session radio recording from 1997
Tracklisting:
* The High Birds: 'Seventeen' (EP 'Take You Down') Heavenly
* Ono Sendai: 'Forecast' (12") Precision
* Bette Davis & The Balconettes: '0898' (Single) Babyboom
* Pastels: 'Unfair Kind Of Fame' (Single) Domino
* Black Dog: 'Babylon' (session)
* Fall: 'Gramme Friday' (LP 'Grotesque (After the Gramme)') Rough Trade
* Pilot Can: 'Losing More Than My Fingers' (LP 'Socially Inept Disco') Evol
* Asian Dub Foundation: 'Free Satpal Ram' (Single) Damaged Goods
* Half Man Half Biscuit: 'Tonight, Matthew, I'm Going To Be With Jesus' (LP ' Voyage To The Bottom Of The Road') Probe Plus
* (JP: 'As I've mentioned before, in a decently ordered society members of Half Man Half Biscuit would be routinely carried shoulder high through the streets of every city they visited.')
* (JP: 'This is from the Black Dog, this is called 'Julia'. Another one that's gonna fade in, I rather suspect... but it will be with us any moment now... Actually this is unprecedented. What is happening? It is going - (machine beeps) - there it is. I seem to remember this happening before, interestingly. (the track starts) There we go. It really isn't me, it isn't. IT ISN'T!')
* Black Dog: 'Julia' (session)
* (JP: 'I know you don't believe me and it's a bad workman who blames his tools, as I've said before. But really, the technology sometimes in this studio - and I think it's betwitched or something, I really don't know what goes on - but according to the machinery in here, this has 40 seconds to run, so if I stop speaking for 40 seconds, which I'm very tempted to do I must admit, there'll be a long silence and then an emergency tape will come on followed by a tune by Oasis, which you'd probably quite like to hear. But there you go, it's still ticking away, 28 seconds now you see. I should get into the rhythms (clicks fingers) you know, those rich polyrhythms... Anyway, there you go, that was Black Dog and 'Julia'.')
* The Azusa Plane: 'Shooting Speed With Lou Reed' (LP 'Sounds From the Philadelphia Low Orbit Lounge') Lounge/Low Orbit
* Codiac: 'Zero' (?) Slant
* The track ends suddenly. (JP: 'Oh come on! What has gone wrong? That's supposed to last for another couple of minutes. Hold on a second, let me just check this out because really I'm beginning to think that I am bedeviled. Well there you go, it says zero and it's by Codiac and it's on Slant Records and it lasted for about a minute and 40 seconds and yes it says 3 minutes and 10 seconds. Listen listeners, can I come round to your place? Things are getting very very deep around here indeed. Anyway, it's time in just a moment for the news as soon as I sort one or two technical things out here and after the news, with any luck, I mean who can possibly say? The studio may implode or something in the course of the news, I may disappear, I may burst into flames! Anything seems to be possible. But in the meantime let's have a go at the news, after which, if everything goes according to plan, I'll play you a track by Bill Ding.')
* (news)
* Bill Ding: 'The Power Of The Microphone' (LP 'Bill Ding's And The Sound Of Adventure') Hefty
* Shalawambe: 'Samora Machel' (12" single) Cariba
* Ivor Cutler: 'Ride Off' (LP 'A Wet Handle') Creation
* Girlfrendo: 'Friday Night Lovebite' (7" single) Piao!
* Subba Cultcha: 'Raw Acid' (?) Silverback
* Mikey Dread: 'Robbers Roost' (?) Forty Leg
* Black Dog: 'Dissidents & Red & Black' (session)
* High Coin: 'Raise A Smile' (7" single) Dishy

Peel says they "have just returned from a tour in canada" and mentions the 2 hour live demo recored in Toronto. So maybe there were more shows and as he says 'they', they were probably the three (ken, andy and ed) there.
Enjoy the track Babylon and the other as well. John Peel was a great radio dj.

no, no, no, it was just Ken Downie. Ed & Andy had left 2 years before in 1995.(i heard it was actually back stage at a gig, the grand fall out)
Ken might have gone with some other people, tho.... to Canada, who helped out. 'roadies', a bass player (?), moroccan belly dancers, etc. etc. ;)
but definitely not Ed and Andy. JP, though definitely a great, lovely, inspiring man, didn't know everything about the bands he played. :)

But, is it true that there were actually more gigs in Canada?

What you have is a Peel Sessions dedicated to The Black Dog only.
This one is a radio show called Peel Sessions, with much more artists, as you can see by the tracklist.

the above is 1 of his shows from '97. the whole thing, incl. some Black Dog tracks he decided to play at the time.
they've not been released by Warp as a Peel session EP. unlike the other famous Peel sessions, and the one the original tBd did in '95, i think.. which is what you must have. innit.
