23 February 1996

Show

Several recordings are available. The first a) with just the last song and link available. This clip is at the start of a recording of Tim Westwood's show (wrongly dated to the same date in 1995), and it is interesting that Peel ends his show with a German-language hip-hop track (from an album that achieved considerable commercial success in its homeland), as if to distance himself and his view of hip-hop from Westwood's heavily US-dominated idea of it, just as his view of pop and rock music generally differed from the "Anglosphere" view of most of his Radio 1 colleagues throughout his career.
The second recording b) includes the full three hour show.
Files c-f contain selected dance/international tracks in very high quality.
First play for a new band from Glasgow called Mogwai.
John offers his support to Jarvis Cocker following the incident at the 1996 Brit Awards.
