"pirate radio historians will be interested in a restoration project using tapes of the final transmissions by Radio London from their last day Aug 14, 1967. John Peel's last pirate show, aka "The Perfumed Garden," all 5 1/2 hours worth, has been painstakingly rebuilt. Some UK collectors located 90% of all of Peel's original low-fi (and very quaint hippie-esque) intros and outros from various reel to reel home-recorded sources. Then over time they located clean copies of every song he played that night. This new and old material was then seamlessly cut together, and a 5-CD set has been making the trading rounds. Info on the restoration project can be found at http://members.aol.com/VelvetFogg/HTML/PEEL.html
Now a Peel tribute site has the whole thing available for download in 5 parts at http://www.jonhorne.co.uk/jptapes/perfumedgarden.html "
