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.

  • File 1 was rebroadcast on BBC Radio 6 on 2010-12-27, as part of The Sound Of The 70s With Marc Riley. It not known if the clip is edited or a continuous section of the original programme.
  • Among the highlights, Peel rates the two Elvis tracks as one of the best double-A sided singles of all time, and is put off playing the first Siouxsie track by the appearance in the studio of Paul Gambaccini, who has appeared with Peel on Kaleidoscope (Radio 4) earlier in the evening (discussing the new Rolling Stones album).
  • Other 70s Peel clips played by Riley came from the programmes of 10 December 1979 and 05 February 1979.
