John Peel Wiki

Changes to the look of John Peel Wiki will take place in the near future due to a new skin being rolled out over Oct/Nov across Wikia. Please see the Wikia Staff Blog for further details. On this site, the changes will affect the navigation from the left menu, as well as introduce a fixed page width with narrower content space. Please be patient while adjustments are made for the switch to the new system.

UPDATE: As the change is now in force for some users, I have switched the navigation to the simplified one for the new system. Please check Navigation in the Help section if you can't find things. I also initially made small adjustments to the front page layout, but have now reverted to the old look until all users are on the new system.

COUNTDOWN: Just a reminder for people still using Monaco that the final switch to the new skin is due on Nov. 3. After that, it will no longer be offered as an option. Sorry. Nothing to do with me.

Comments
  • Peel mentions that Diblo Dibala calling his LP 'My Love' is a bad sign and talks to Andy Kershaw, where he mentions Diblo Dibala is striving to be like George Benson.
  • Peel mentions that some tracks from Bible Launcher's LP feel like that they come from porn soundtracks.
  • Peel plays an unknown hard trance white label, which mentions the catalogue ICE 1020. ICE1020 turns out to be Agent Plant's The Shovel - Cellawest.
  • Peel plays an unusual record mixing soukous with progressive trance from UVX and wonders whether Andy Kershaw will like it, which Andy after the show mentions wanting a copy of it.

Tracklistings[]

(JP: 'Kershaw and I have been discussing this LP, we had to agree this was not a great Diblo and Matchacha LP, but we're playing tracks, but we found a couple of tracks we like, the same two tracks and that's that one and he's playing the other one later')
(JP: 'This is Melting Pot, not the horrendous tune by Blue Mink you will be pleased to hear, you probably too young to remember, but it's a real nightmare')
