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.

  • Peel asks listeners from queries of letters relating to Indian and Chinese records that he used to play on the radio. One was asking who did the ABBA covers in Hindi? (answer is Salma & Sabina) and the other was who did a Chinese language cover of the Village People's Y.M.C.A.? (answer is George Lam)

(JP: ‘If you were listening to Andy’s [Kershaw] programme earlier on this evening and I certainly hope that you were. You would have heard a first half of a session from Robert Ward & The Otis Grand Blues Band running through both programmes. And the first one from the ensemble coming up on this programme in just a moment.’)
(JP: ‘Here’s further grief and anguish for those of you who are Sonic Youth completists.’)
(JP: ‘Go to it collectors. I’ve got mine!’)
