Harvest Some cracking tunes from '89. Not sure what happened to the bloke who wrote the article.NME ArticleDEEP IN the heart of rural East Anglia JOHN PEEL sits, running his fingers through his beard, opening Festive 50 entries, marking down the votes, and then tossing the envelope into the roaring fire before him."People assume it's all computerised but really it's just me marking every single vote down in a ledger. There is obviously the temptation to slip something in that I like, especially if it's just outside the 50, and something crap has gone above it. But I have a very workman-like brain so it just wouldn't be on to fix it."I did actually try to write down what my three entries would be if I had a vote but it was impossible. I couldn't get it any fewer than a list of 250."I've been disappointed with this years chart, it's very conservative, more so than last year. Especially as at the time of voting there was an awful lot of good dance music around on the show, but none of it was voted for. No A Guy Called Gerald, no Stakker or Humanoid or whatever it's called, no 808 State. No hardcore even."
