Tribute to John Peel

[Broomehall]

None before, None since, I sincerely believe he reached out in a way no other DJ ever has, missed massively by anyone who appreciated the freedom and musical anarchy John bought to the air waves, there is forever an empty space on the dial.............god bless him

[E1evenE1evenE1even]

Its not just Radio 1 John

The WHOLE of the BBC is predictable meaningless porridge

[ombelicodivenere]

I was astonished when I saw the charango!

John Peel "discovered" more music than any other DJ, had a legendary success rate in finding unknowns that would become big, architected some of the musical wonders of the world through his sessions, and had a diversity of likes that few can come close to, working with everyone from Delia Derbyshire (of White Noise/Radiophonic Workshop fame) to industrial metal bands like Sisters of Mercy to pop superstars like The Beatles. Both radio and music-loving society lost a lot when they lost him.

[hurley501]

dude....john peel rules!!!!!no.1!

there was never and will never be a better radio presenter on radio 1 than him.

[justbeingnasty]

John Peel was a prize bore, a waffling bag of wind & piss who the British public lionised because he was slightly more bearable than Dave Lee Travis...give it a rest you bunch of hopeless fucktards...one other question...how the fuck could they tell he was dead?

[sandprof]

if you can find one person to agree with you - you will be lying

[PliskinLee]

Hope your life remains miserable you tosser.

[Metaborie]

Ein Stück mehr um John Peel unsterblich zumachen!!!
