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: 'Demonstrating yet again, dare I say, if it needed to be demonstrated, that twang is still the thang. Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet from Toronto and that's called Good Cop Bad Cop. And this weekend, amongst sorting out all of my records and all of the demo tapes and all the newspapers, I shall dash off a letter to the Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet and say 'How about promotional copies of those earlier records, boys?')
(JP: 'Excellent, that's Datblygu in session and that's called Capriog and which means Ragged and there have been those who said Datblygu sound rather like the Welsh equivalent of the Fall, so let's have a look at that chart rundown shall we? This week's highest new entry, number 30')
(JP: 'Excellent I think, that's Datblygu in session and that's called Nesaf and it makes me wish I can speak Welsh I must say. I hope none of those words were Welsh for parts of the body, I don't imagine they were, it didn't sound like that performance at all')
