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.

  • Appears to be a first play of the debut Orange Juice single.
  • As mentioned, Peel travelled North to Lancaster for a gig the following evening and then on to Anfield for top of the table Liverpool v. third place Ipswich Town which ended in a 1-1 draw. [1]

Tracklisting[]

(JP: "On Monday night I met a couple of people from a band called Orange Juice who brought me a copy of their single and I played it and said I would play it on Wednesday's programme, which I failed to do, so they probably thought, "Well, we won't listen to him again, in which case they'll have missed hearing the record, which is in tonight's programme and is called 'Falling And Laughing'.")
(JP: "Those are the Birds. I should like to be going home again, but in its relentless pursuit of gold, the John Peel Roadshow is bound for Lancaster tomorrow night and then onto the match on Saturday.")
