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: 'When I played a track from this next LP on my programmes in Britain, I got several letters from people saying, "That is the worst band you've ever featured on your programme!"')
(JP: 'A valuable addition to our cultural lives, I think...destined to be stars, no doubt about it....For various technical reasons, not unconnected with my having been talking too much in the course of this programme, I'm not going to be able to play you all of the new single by the Very Things, just most of it.')
  • Very Things: This Is Motortown (7") D.C.L. Electric Recordings DCL 1 $
(JP: 'Well, you got the idea of it. I'll try to remember to play it in its entirety in next week's programme. To end the programme this week...')
(JP: 'Time spreads like a stain, as he says, and it's certainly caught up with us on the John Peel show! Hope you'll join me again at the same time next week. Until then, goodbye.')
