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.

Tracklisting[]

JP: "Sauce indeed! Several of my colleagues, or at least one of my colleagues, sees Bogshed as being something like the anti-Christ. I'll never understand, they're a very funny band, I think."
JP: "This is a record which a lot of people write to me about and they always say, 'can you play that record with the bells in it again'. And I keep explaining what it actually is, it's Finitribe and it's called 'De Testimony' and it's on Cathexis Records. Somebody wrote in and told me what Cathexis means and if I can find the letter I'll tell you what it was. I'll read the first sentence or so... It's very heavy duty stuff indeed."
