Istanbul-Turkey

Peel visited Istanbul with Sheila in 1994 as part of his work with the BBC World Service to make programmes about the music scene in the country. On his show on 26 November 1994 (BFBS), Peel explained how he discovered Turkish musician 2/5 BZ through collecting records from the country:

"In Turkey I picked up as always a load of cassettes and stuff and you know some interesting stuff in there, but only one really really rather astonishing recording and that's by a one man band called 2/5 BZ" 

Peel finally had the chance for 2/5BZ to do a session for his programme in 2003, where he became the first Turkish artist to do a Peel session.
