Exact date unknown: JP refers to the Cocteau Twins and Smiths singles as "new" (released 1985-03-04 and 1985-03-18 respectively). It is possible that JP played the entire Die Toten Hosen session from a recent 7 inch release: he refers to them as "guests" in the programme, something he usually said when this happened. Many thanks to the taper.

11. (JP: 'I think I heard the word "bums" in that, and if that's true then I apologise to all of you without reservation.') [2] – It is actually "bumsen" that JP hears...German for 'bonking'. It is this kind of thing that they put into their only session and which caused him to stop playing their records, once he found out the meaning.
