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.

  • Show starts at 2:59 of the audio. However before that, is the start of an earlier Peel WS show where John reads out a "complaint" letter before fading out into the first track. This sounds like it was then recorded over by the show depicted here.
  • After the My Bloody Valentine track, Peel claims he played Napalm Death's Uncertainty Blurs The Vision (Peel mistakenly calls it Uncertainty Blurs The Future), although there is no evidence of this on the audio.
  • Peel mentions he wasn't happy with the Happy Mondays previous work, but likes the track from their current album.
