 * BBC Radio 1
 * 8.00 pm Andy Peebles. AP writes: 'One of the enjoyable facets of the programme is the opportunity to invite new musical talent into the BBC studios to record sessions for us. Some months ago a friend of mine played me tracks from a new Judy Tzuke album. I'm convinced that this young lady has an interesting future. Not only does she possess a superb voice but she also has the ability, so essential at the moment, to write her own songs. Having featured her album on our programme, Jeff Griffin and I had no hesitation in asking Judy and her band to record a session for us.' Each evening this week you can hear a number from the session.
