Hello,

I'm looking for anyone who may have (or know of) recordings of the BBC Radio 2 series Ralph McTell & Friends from 1983.

As mentioned in a previous thread, I'm working on source research for an official release of Jake Thackray radio sessions. Jake was on this programme twice - on 12th August and 30th September 1983. Both shows were certainly taped, and we have a good quality copy of the first date, but only one song in poor quality from the second.

If anyone out there has access to a decent tape of the 30th September 1983 edition, I'd love to hear from you!

I should add - neither show is in the BBC archive.

I recorded the Folk on 2 on the night in question but did not let the recording run on into the next programme so missed it!
