Nasmak - Peel session

Nasmak recorded a session for legendary BBC radio man John Peel on 19 May 1982, first transmitted on 8 June. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/johnpeel/sessions/1980s/1982/May19nasmak/)

Tracks:
01 Plaster
02 No touch and go
03 Heartache blow up
04 Walkman

Line up:
Joop van Brakel - vocals, guitar, percussion
Toon Bressers - drums, vocals
Theo van Eenbergen - bass, percussion, vocals

It seems that Nasmak did another Peel session previous to this one (likely in 1980), because they are widely regarded to be the first Dutch band to record a Peel session and Minny Pops are confirmed to have recorded one on 12 November 1980 (first transmitted on 2 December). Unfortunately, I don't have a recording of (either of) these sessions. Let me know if you do, I'd love to host it here.
