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.

  • Parts of the show are available on four files, all edited to some degree. The first three files of the tracklisting below are in the apparent order of the broadcast. The fourth file, highlighting the Krispy Three session, mostly takes tracks from the other three, but adds extra songs.
  • Peel shies away from giving the correct title for the Extreme Noise Terror track, but promises another one from their new release in the following night’s show (08 December 1991).

(JP: “An oldie but goodie. Reminds me of you…”)
(JP: “And I see in this week’s Melody Maker that PJ Harvey has a bit of an appetite for the work of Lightnin’ Hopkins. In fact, she cited an LP of his which I don’t have, and I thought I’d got most of them, so this is from one that I’ve got and I bet she doesn’t.”)
(JP: “Met him as well actually. Jumped up on stage when he was playing at Luanne’s in Dallas millions of years ago and shook his hand.”)
(JP: “Ipswich should be proud of them. We should be proud to have them live amongst us, as a matter of fact. That’s Extreme Noise Terror, and nobody does it better, they really don’t.”)

  2. Waste Of Life
(Peel/Kershaw trailer)
(JP: “Quite a few people have written in to ask what is going to be broadcast over Christmas and the New Year in place of the Festive Fifty. If you weren’t listening a couple of weeks ago, we pressed the abort button – or at least I had to press the abort button – on that, because of there had been what I think is a poor response to it. I mean, since then it’s rather perked up, but you know once you make these decisions you have to stick with them, otherwise you’d look a bit of a twerp. But it’ll be something terrific, no question about that. Probably my favourite records of the year instead of yours.”)
(JP: “Hard Times once, Hard Times twice.”)
(JP announces final track and reminds us that tomorrow’s sessions are from the Frank & Walters and Telescopes.)
