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.

Comments
  • Peel is disappointed in not seeing his own article in Time Out magazine.
  • Peel mentions seeing the Pixies perform at the end of last week and thought their gig was wonderful. He also saw the Band Of Susans perform, who were the supporting act to Rapeman, the following night, but thought Rapeman's performance was really good. although he was not happy with their name. However, he thought Band Of Susan's performance was OK.
  • Peel plays a track from the latest LP from That Petrol Emotion, which doesn't excite him as much as their earlier work.
  • Peel mentions seeing the Marxist Brothers perform, whilst in Zimbabwe early in the year and plays some Zimbabwean records from his friend's mother who visited the country and brought some records for him.
  • Throughout the programme, Peel plays snippets of British TV, that are broadcasting live, whilst he's in the studio.
  • Peel mentions that the Three Johns' music is lately perhaps becoming a little fatigue.
  • Peel plays a track from Zambian group, Amayenge, but doesn't know the name of the track or the album, as it doesn't feature any names on the record, given to him by the band. The track turns out to be Umwana Amonekela Uluchelo and the album, Asoza.
