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 there are some hip hop records he hasn't played because of sexist lyrics and gives an example of DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince's Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble. He then plays a hip hop record, which replies to that from Ice Cream "T", which also features contributions from DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince.
  • Peel mentions wondering around and singing a tune from Gene Vincent, when he was not feeling on top and plays that track on the show.
  • Peel mentions seeing New Order in Edinburgh, Scotland last week, but thought, it wasn't their best gig.
  • Peel says that King Short Shirt's recent work hasn't been as good as his early ones.
