Given the finished state of the BF tracks that appear on this broadcast, I was skeptical that this was 1997 (almost 1.5 years before the album release), but it appears to be true!

According to this, in advance of XFM London going live on 104.9 FM on September 1, 1997, they had Underworld, The Cure, and Pulp (and Prodigy?) doing test broadcasts on the frequency. No indication as to how long the broadcasts were, or which date exactly Underworld was.
I was surprised to hear "Are You Rockstar?" at about 18:40 in Part 2. We didn't hear it again until the Bungalow with Stairs broadcast in 2008. I had no idea Rick had been reaching so far back into the archives for some of those tracks on the radio shows.
