I'm completly gutted.
John was a legend, most versatile D.J of our time.
Love his "dottiness" and soft spoken voice.
I shall definatly be leaving a message in his tribute pages.
God bless.
The man was a legend and will be sorely missed by all who ever had the privilege of hearing his radio show or seeing him DJ live.
To say this is a big loss to British Music is a massive understatement!!!!
R.I.P John
I think it would be more appropriate to say a big loss to the music world as a whole. You have to remember, he did not start his radio career in the UK and thanks to web radio and various CD releases, he stretched far beyond the UK.Quote:

R.I.P John Peel
Actually, I was reaffirming what you said. No need to be childish and call people an idiot.
A realy sad day in music history. John Peel was simply irreplaceable.
My thoughts & prayers are with his family.
I heard about this on the radio, died of a heart attack.
He was with radio one from the beginning in 1967.
He'll be missed.
Yes, the last of the original Radio1 DJs not farmed out.Quote:

Now he can have his Teenage Kicks for Eternity.
RIP JP.
