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.

(JP: 'Hi pals, time for another John Peel's Music On BFBS with a wide range of requests as always, and one or two interesting records.')
  • King Blank: 'Mouth Off (7")' (Situation Two)
  • Folk Devils: 'Hank Turns Blue (7")' (Ganges)
(JP: 'You may have read in the papers that the Swans have covered Joy Division's 'Love Will Tear Us Apart', and I was rather hoping that they would have done it kind of Swans style. As you can tell, they haven't, really.')
  • Swans: 'Love Will Tear Us Apart (7")' (Product Inc.)
(JP: 'Well, a bit of a disappointment to me, but I thought you'd be interested in hearing it....they should have done it in their usual style, slow it right down and make it really grim.')
