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.

The Forty-Fives were an American garage rock band from Atlanta consisting of guitarist/vocalist Bryan Malone, bassist Mark McMurtry, organist Trey Tidwell, and drummer Adam Renshaw. After spending most of 1999 on tour with like-minded artists such as Link Wray, Wayne Kramer, the Dickies, Pansy Division, and Marky Ramone, the group released their debut album, Get It Together, on Artemis Records in early 2000. Two years later, after a lengthy tour around the country, they stopped at Sun Studios in Memphis and put together their second album. Unfortunately, the band found themselves unhappy with the results, and they re-recorded a good portion of the record before its release. Finally, Fight Dirty was released in the fall of 2002 on Yep Roc. It was followed in 2004 by High Life High Volume.
