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[]

File a

(JP: 'Hello and welcome to another John Peel's Music On BFBS. We're going to start off by hearing the next big thing.')
(JP: 'Well clearly I don't know whether they are going to be the next big thing, and frankly I don't care a great deal, but I think they're wonderful....the fact that they come from Liverpool is entirely coincidental.')
(JP: 'I'm certainly looking forward to the World Cup, I must admit. I mean, anything to keep me going during the summer, and does it coincide with Wimbledon, which is my least favourite event of the entire year, or have we had Wimbledon this year? Either way I don't care. It's one of those things that seems to be on TV interminably, like the Horse Of The Year show, and kind of endless snooker. Anyway, football starts fairly soon and that will make life worth living again.')

File b

(JP: 'Well as we all know, Elvis is still alive out there somewhere, so if you're listening, Elv, drop us a line and tell me which track from this compact disc you'd like to hear yourself.')
  • Trenchmouth: 'Snakebite (7")' (Ad Infinitum)
(JP: 'I've never been terrifically keen on the work of U2, although somebody wrote and told me the other day that when they first started out I used to play their records all the time. I'm sure I didn't: I mean, I never liked 'em. Anyway, it seems I'm not alone in this, because on the new LP from Last Party, there's a track called...')
(JP: 'Well, the lyrics don't seem to imply divine disregard for the prosperous Irish combo, but the title is written in such a way as to imply that that's what they have in mind.')

File c

  • Work: 'Abdomen (LP-Rubber Cage)' (Woof/Ayaa/In-Poly-Sons)
