The track 'Twist The Knife' from Neko Case's second album, Furnace Room Lullaby, reached #1 in the 2000 Festive Fifty. It would be the only case of a country song topping the list and her one and only Festive Fifty entry.

Peel first played a track from the album on 08 February 2000 but admitted he'd had the LP at home for some time already. He soon made up for lost time, however, and the LP was featured heavily in his shows over subsequent months. The DJ also went back to play tracks from her debut album and her early recordings as a member of Canadian indie rock band Meow (later Maow), which he styled her "day job" (02 April 2000 (BFBS)). There would also be a live Maida Vale session later in the year.

After Peel's death, a six-track 1992 EP featuring Case as a member of Meow was found in John Peel's Record Box.
