Rock Week was a Radio One show presented by Peel on Saturday afternoons from 5.00-6.30 pm that ran from 04 January 1975 to 20 September 1975. Produced by John Walters, it was listed as 'John Peel with news, views and comment on the Rock Week'.


 * In the schedules, Rock Week followed Alan Freeman's Rock Show, and a series of bizarre trailers were made for broadcast on Fluff's programme by Peel and Walters.


 * The Complete Chronicle Of The Who contains the following entry for 1975-03-07: "At Broadcasting House, London, Pete recorded an interview with John Peel, previewing the Tommy soundtrack for a two and a half Radio 1 "Rock Week" special, broadcast 5:00-7:30 pm the following day."

The only known recording of Rock Week that is known to exist is part of the 05 April 1975 show, although some of the Peel/Walters trailers for the programme on the Alan Freeman show that came before it on the schedule have also survived.
