John Peel
The many tributes in the press and all over the internet on messageboards and so on do the job much better than I could of saying something worhwhile about the contribution John Peel has made to both music makers and music listeners over the last 40 years.

However, I just need to say that I thought it really great last night as I listened to Steve Lamacq in Peel's old time slot playing lots of old session tracks, that both my neighbour downstairs and my neighbour next door were both listening to the same show.

I had this image of people all over the country sitting up till 1am listening under the bedclothes and remembering the 65 year old man who had the same thirst and love for new music as he'd had as an 18 year old.

John Peel, we salute you. 14:35
