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.

Crocodile God

Crocodile God were a punk band formed in Liverpool in 1992 by Mark Murphy (guitar and vocals), Keith Ravenscroft (bass) and Andy Higham (drums and backing vocals). They self released the Two Days 7" in 1994 and the Old John Mac LP in 1995.

In 1996 the Boss 7" EP was put out as a joint release by Crackle! Records and Rumblestrip Records. The band went on to release two more 7" EPs on Crackle! Records in 1997, followed by the album Stella in 1999 before breaking up a year later.

Crocodile God reformed in 2006 to play live, and a Discography CD was released by Crackle! Records in 2007.
