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.

Links to Peel[]

Peel was a supporter of Freddy Fresh's work and his Howlin' record label. After Peel’s death, Freddy Fresh paid tribute to the man on the discogs website:

"I did 2 shows for John Peel one live in the studio at BBC with him and one sent in from Minnesota on a CD. John was one of the chief supporters of my Howlin' record label and is very missed as he was a great guy and incredible icon of a DJ. John personally told me that he had unreleased Beatles Test Pressings that John Lennon personally gave to him that few people in the world even know exist." [1]

Freddy Fresh used many alias names when releasing records, which some of them were played by Peel.
