By November, the football season was in full swing and that invariably meant that Exotica Records would have their latest volume of football related songs and spoken word curios out. Over the coming weeks, Peel would play several selections from Bend It! 92, most of which have made it onto my lists of future selections. Providing I don’t go cold on them, I can promise you calypsos, The Nolans and a paean of love to The Beatles courtesy of a football pools company.
For now, sit back and listen to George Best talk about the problems of building his own home - one of the great examples of the brilliance/awfulness of late 1960s modernist design - and having to contend with the dual issue of protecting his privacy at the point where he was one of the most famous men in Europe as well as the more prosaic problem of trying to turn his television set on.
