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: 'Former number one in America you know, quite a long time ago now')
(JP: 'This is rather clever I think, I hope you'll be impressed by this because the next record is King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band recorded in 1923 with of course Louis Armstrong and it's gonna be Dipper Mouth Blues, which is famous because they stop in the middle and shout out Oh Play That Thing and Play That Thing was the title of the previous record, it's amazing how these things knit together isn't it')
