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.

  • Peel is very happy that one of his favourite songs (September Song) has now been sung by one of this favourite singers (Robert Wyatt).
  • For a competition to see Cinerama at Maida Vale, JP tells us the prize but forgets to set the question before starting the next record - says this is a first. The second competition is for 10 listeners to win around 200 records each from Peel's Christmas clearout by coming up with 20 words or less on why they listen to the Peel show (to be used on a Sony Prize entry); the winners would eventually be announced on the 17 January 2002 show.
  • In reply to a listener enquiry, Peel says he has just over 26,000 vinyl albums – he knows this from his card filing system. Estimates about the same number of CDs, perhaps a few thousand fewer.
  • Again no Pig's Big 78, presumably because of ongoing MD recording problems at Peel Acres.
