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: 'In the middle of last week, I went clubbing, which I don't very often do, to be honest with you. I'm not much of a dancing man and I need me sleep, but I went to see T.Raumschmiere, whose records I've been playing a lot on the radio recently and who's going to be doing something for my programmes in this country shortly.')
(JP: 'Because the weather's been reasonably good in this country in the past couple of weeks, it's reminded me from time to time of 1967, the Summer of Love, when the weather was pretty good as well, and here's a record from that summer. Don't pay any attention to what other people may tell you: this was the first heavy metal band.')
(JP: '(The next record) is of interest to me because it's one of the very few records in which I can identify a sample: I'm very bad at that. But the kind of 'whoopee' that goes through it is taken from the jingles on the pirate radio ship Radio London, which I worked on very briefly, again in 1967. Interesting, eh?')

File b

(JP: 'Nina Nastasia, I'm proud to say, is a member of our family, but I don't think any of us would have the nerve to call her a "funky chick."')
