when people talk of genius and influence in music you need
look no further than Peel, a true fighter for real music.

feeling really sad now for a guy i never knew but turned me
on to so many different sounds.

i mean who HASNT got a Peel session????

my mum just called me up to let me know. he's a legend in
our house (we all listen to him on radio 1 & 4) and my mum
was acting like a family-member had died. what a guy. he
really will be sorely missed.

/me puts on the undertones 'teenage kicks'

I have just read the news on bbc.co.uk.

He introduced me to so much good music, a true pioneer.

It is like a family member has died.....

perhaps instead of being sad, we should all celebrate his
life by listening to all his peel sessions and revelling in
what a genuine nice down to earth guy he was. RIP.

Too bad I know next to nothing about him. But I guess I can
sympathise. I felt bad when Mr. Rogers died. Not trying to
compare the two. Just saying: I feel you.

I just heard on Radio 4, where they had an extended news
piece on John Peel. Bit of a shame, really.

with his music. Such a great DJ, so many great sessions.

Maybe they'll release a boxset of all the best peel

Only upshot is that they're actually playing good music on
the radio for a change
