Notes
- ↑ Peel writes about the gig, which no one else turned up for, in a Disc & Music Echo column from 1970 or 1971, exact date unknown, republished in Olivetti Chronicles (p. 119-21).
- ↑ Disc & Music Echo column from 1970 or 1971, exact date unknown, republished in Olivetti Chronicles (p. 197-200). A Guardian article by Richard Williams following the death of Michael Jackson confirms that Peel attended the event.
- ↑ Disc & Music Echo column from 1970 or 1971, exact date unknown, republished in Olivetti Chronicles (p. 327-30). Peel says the gig was a few month's after the artist's debut album was released (in 1970).
- ↑ Margrave Of The Marshes, p. 198. The venue was run by Peel's long-time friend "Big Bob" Knight, who was also involved in the nearby Blisworth Hotel. A BBC Northampton documentary on the Nag's Head, including Peel's role, is available online.
- ↑ Peel wrote about the evening, which he attended with John Walters and their respective wives, in an Disc & Music Echo column republished in Olivetti Chronicles (hardback edition, p. 146-50) and dated 1970 or 1971. An online record of the venue's schedule suggests two possible dates in summer 1971.
- ↑ The BBC says this was Peel's first-ever Glastonbury, although the man himself was also known to claim he went with Marc Bolan to the first one in 1970.
- ↑ Disc & Music Echo column, 1971-07-31, republished in The Olivetti Chronicles.
- ↑ Observer column, 1989-01-22, republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (hardback edition, p. 92). There may have been a venue of the same name in Leytonstone, and Peter Gabriel (singer with Genesis at the time) has put the gig with Roxy Music attended by Peel as taking place there, during an interview with Mojo magazine (April 2010, p. 82). A reader's letter to the same magazine the following month, however, confirmed that the Genesis/Roxy gig took place at Hobbit's in Wimbledon.
- ↑ Disc & Music Echo column, 1972-04-01, republished in Olivetti Chronicles (p. 30-41). Peel mentions the gig was two days before the 1972 Eurovision Song Contest. For more details of the Cohen gig see here. Earlier the same day, Peel attended a reception for Captain Beefheart at the Speakeasy in London.
- ↑ (message to Discussion section of this page) Peel can be heard introducing Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band at the Royal Albert Hall in London on March 27, 1972- there's an extant audience recording of the show: "This is something that I've been waiting for for six years, and I hope it means as much to you as it does to me. Captain Beefheart!"
- ↑ Disc & Music Echo column 1973-04-14, republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (p. 260-2).
- ↑ Disc & Music Echo column 1973-04-14, republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (p. 260-2).
- ↑ Peel's Disc & Music Echo column 1973-05-12, republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (p. 141-2), gives a roadshow date in Hull the night before Liverpool clinched the championship at Anfield that season, in a match that took place the following day, as shown here and [1]. If the Quo concert in Sunderland and the Hull date were at different times on the Friday evening, Peel may have done both gigs.
- ↑ In his 24 July 2003 (Radio Eins) show, Peel recalls hearing the Magic Band perform 'Circumstances' in Newcastle. As the track is from Clear Spot, released in 1973, 1973-04-28 appears the most likely date for the Beefheart gig mentioned, particularly if Peel had introduced a Status Quo qig in nearby Sunderland the previous evening, at another concert promoted by his friend Geoff Docherty (A Promoter's Tale, pg.245). On the other hand, in the afternoon of the Beefheart appearance in Newcastle, Liverpool won the league at Anfield and Peel claimed to have been there in his Disc & Music Echo column of 1973-05-12, republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (p. 141-2). While it would certainly be possible to travel between the two northern cities in a few hours, it seems unlikely Peel would have failed to mention in his column the perfect end to a perfect day (LFC win the league, followed by a Beefheart gig in the evening). Beefheart's next date in Newcastle was 1974-06-04 ([2]), which may have been the performance referred to by Peel in 2003.
- ↑ Peel writes about the upcoming gig in The Listener, issue 1973-06-07, republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (p. 311-3). Although he doesn't confirm he will be attending in person, he writes about the event in such glowing terms that it appears unlikely he wasn't planning to go.

- ↑ Ken Garner, The Peel Sessions, p. 93
- ↑ Peel also wrote at length about his weekend at the festival for Sounds, in a piece that was republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (pg. 245-50).
- ↑ Peel mentions the event in his end of year write-up for The Listener in a piece later republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (pg. 182).
- ↑ [[Sounds column, 1977-11-05, republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (p. 80-3). Peel also mentions a recent Roadshow gig in Norwich, presumably also in October, and "three remaining dates on my pre-Yule British tour", presumably in November or December.
- ↑ Sounds column, 1978-05-27, republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (p. 226-9). The gig took place on the same evening Liverpool won the 1978 European Cup Final at Wembley. A photo of Peel looking the worse for wear and introducing the band was published in the following week's Sounds and is also reproduced in Olivetti Chronicles.
- ↑ Sounds column, 1978-06-24, republished in The Olivetti Chronicles (p. 341-4). Peel introduced the band, after an earlier wine-tasting session with John Walters.

- ↑ From message to the Peel Quotes thread at ILX. The title is "Wolverhampton '78" but the football result, session and gigs mentioned suggest the events took place in February 1979, as follows: (Wed 21 February 1979) Essential Logic session; (Fri 23 Feb.) SLF gig in Nottingham[3], (Sat 24 Feb.) Derby 0 - Liverpool 2 [4], followed by John Peel Roadshow at Wolverhampton Poly.
