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.

Gang Starr - wondering if this is the 12" version, and John maybe said something like "taken from the album"? The album version is 2'39" while the 12" is 3'02" and the two tapes that have it are around the 3 minute mark.

I remember on the audio, Peel mentioned that the track is from an imported LP.

I wonder if the timings are wrong on the LP, it would seem strange to play the single version twice then play an album version! So the previous play must also be from the album. I take it you are getting to know the librarians well?

It could be, but mind you I didn't time how long the track was.
