Re: John Peel Dies aged 65
Radio 1 will be a worse place without him. The man was a true legend and has introduced me to so many bands in the short time I've listened to him, let alone those who knew him from the start.
So out of nowhere too, did anyone know he had heart trouble?
Re: John Peel Dies aged 65
They were saying today about all the work he has done, and they listed all the bands that he played first, and some of them are some of the legends of music. He played punk rock, hip hop and reggae before they became mainstreem music. A truely brilliant DJ.

He was a famous diabetic. Who knows.
Radio 1 are doing old session tracks up until the Steve Lamacq show (eek). Steve was a very close friend of the deceased.
