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.

  • "Hello again friends, this is another John Peel's Music On BFBS."
  • John apologises for sounding hoarse, but he has just driven through the night from Glastonbury, which he admits to not enjoying very much due to the mud.
  • Peel plays both sides of the Al Ferrier single, gifted to him by Bob from DM Bob & The Deficits and found in John Peel's Record Box after his death.
  • Towards the end of the show, John confesses to disliking making list of favourite records, but then relents enough to play a track from the Rolling Stones' debut release: he praises its "rubbery" sound. Note the track that follows.

  • None

Tracklisting[]

(JP: 'Will we ever hear anything from them again? One assumes that we will at some stage, from Mark E. Smith in one form or another, but it's an agonising period, I have to say. I'm supposed to be writing some sleeve notes in fact for a compilation of Fall things taken from the Radio One programmes: I have to admit it's my fault (you can see this on the web if you bother to check)...that the record hasn't been released because I haven't written the notes for it yet. I've been a busy boy, I have to say.')
