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
  • The Gregory Isaacs track is dedicated to "the people who came out to Peel Acres over the weekend to film me being incoherent on the subject of vegetarianism."
  • There are four tracks in a row from Germany. A listener from Bristol had previously written to Peel offering to help him with the pronounciation of German records, but when he phones for assistance during the programme they are not at home.
  • Peel plays ABC followed by Vice Versa, Martin Fry's previous band.
  • Tracklisting below is courtesy of the John Peel Papers. Many thanks to the uploader to the John Peel Papers at Facebook for sharing the information. [1]
