There is Some Fun Going Forward is the only sampler album released by John Peel's Dandelion Records label, and was marketed by Polydor. As one might expect from Peel, the artists featured were not necessarily mainstream, and in fact, the only artists featured who enjoyed chart success are Clifford T. Ward and Medicine Head. The sleeve featured a photo of Peel in the bath with a naked (or at least visibly topless) woman.{{cite web|quote=a model, "definitely not the Pig"|title=Peel Before Using|url=http://garylucas.blogspot.com/2005/10/peel-before-using.html |date=October 13, 2005|publisher=Gary Lucas |accessdate=2011-09-05}} It was re-released in 1995 by See For Miles as a CD with extra tracks.
