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.

  • Peel mentions that whilst in London, somebody better dressed than him asked for 20p and thought of saying to him, you give me 20p instead.
  • Peel plays three records from Yugoslavia, that were given to him by a journalist and admits losing the notes that would identify two of the three tracks. The only record he could identify was by Strelnikoff.

Tracklisting[]

(JP: 'Of course, people will say part of my interest in these obscure records is probably something anal retentive and so on, and this is very likely to be the case. My interest in these records and these programmes perhaps derives from the fact that, when I was a child, when I was going through toilet training, I used to be put on the potty (this is when I was very young indeed, about 18 or 19), and then tied to the table leg until I'd, er, performed. Anyway, I won't give you any details on that. Unless you write to me and ask for them specifically under plain cover.') 7
