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.

(JP: 'A good LP actually, their best in a while.')
(JP: 'Well, did you ever have so much fun.')
(JP: 'You know, I've heard that record squillions of times, and it's the first time I've ever noticed that she actually sings the words "musette and drums" several times in the course of it.')
(JP: 'Did that statue move?')
(JP: 'Makes you want to throw your hat in the air and shout "Huzzah!", I shouldn't wonder.')
(JP: 'Saw them last week in London: not bad at all.') [2]
(JP: 'Well, I like that, but they do still sound like Hawkwind at times.')
(JP: 'Getting a bit weird, aren't they?')
(JP: '...over her shoulder. He was still following her, his footsteps echoing eerily from the dark walls of the warehouse on either side of the copper alleyway. Veronica quickened her step and the man broke into a loping run, catching her a full hundred yards before the turn into Lawson Square and safety. "You want to buy some tapes of John Peel's Music On BFBS?", he breathed.')
