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.

Word of Mouth & DJ Cheese 1986 Town & Country club London intro by John Peel

Peel hosted a section of the programme called Hip-Hop Grandmaster Class, broadcast on 20th September 1986 which featured Mantronix and DJ Cheese from New York doing battle at the turntables against UK artist Faze One, consisting of Stepski and Genio at the Town And Country Club. On his 23 September 1986 show, Peel mentioned DJ Cheese as being rude when interviewing him on Hip-Hop Grandmaster Class, but found his music worth listening, where he played a track from the artist.
