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[]

  • (Some music is followed by silence and then the emergency tape plays)
  • Hanin Elias: 'In Flames (CD-In Flames)' (Digital Hardcore Recordings)
(JP: 'I think, as I understand it, you're with us now, having missed the first twelve or thirteen minutes of the programme, for which I apologise. It was not my fault. Let me emphasise that, because people always say, "Old Peelie's such an amusing bloke, he's always making mistakes." It wasn't me who made the mistake. Anyway, what you missed was a track from Spectre which I'll put in next week, one from Teen Idols, and the first from Man Or Astroman, who are in session, and a rather fine record from Tony Rebel, and possibly the first part of that track by Hanin Elias, but hopefully you'll be with us for the rest of the programme.')
(JP: 'Not much point having a paradise if you're going to have to reorder it according to Hollywood standards, I guess.')

2000 Festive Fifty (All-Time): Numbers 15-11[]

(JP: 'Right, it's time for us to engage with the All-Time Festive Fifty, and I haven't got time to go through what we've had up until now. Obviously, there will be lists available at some stage in some form or other.')
(JP: 'Only yesterday, we got a phone call from our William, who's in the Southeast of Asia at the moment, and he is actually at this very precise moment on holiday in Cambodia, which brings us rather spookily to number 14.')
(JP: 'Majestic. There never was a greater, not even Mark E. Smith.')
