R.I.P John Peel.
I was lucky enough to have met him several times, (his wife also) and he was a nice person.
He is responsible for getting several well~known acts off the ground, being a champion of the unknown talents.
The John Peel Sessions are unforgettable. The Chameleons, Joy Division, X Mal Deutschland and Siouxsie are just some of the wonderful bands he have followed...
Veteran radio broadcaster and music DJ John Peel has died suddenly in Peru from a heart attack. He was 65.
He was on holiday with his wife Sheila in the city of Cuzco.
Peel was one of the greatest influences of British pop music, starting in the Sixties and still playing new and experimental music in recent weeks on his weekday Radio 1 show.
He went on to become a broadcasting legend, famous for championing new bands and music genres long before they crossed over into the mainstream.
In 1998, Peel starting presenting the award-winning Radio 4 programme Home Truths about the ups and downs of family life.
He was awarded an OBE for services to broadcasting in the same year.
Born in 1939 in the Wirral, John Robert Parker Ravenscroft adopted the surname Peel during his pirate radio days.
On finishing his military service in 1962, he went to Texas and began working for WRR radio in Dallas.
For the next three years he moved around America working for various radio stations.
He started his Radio 1 career in 1967 when he returned to London, establishing himself with the show Top Gear.
The legendary DJ began as a broadcaster in the US in the Sixties, and came back to Britain to become a pirate DJ, playing music from new acts such as the Small Faces and Pink Floyd.
He was a friend of stars of that time such as Marc Bolan, and played with Rod Stewart on the song Maggie May on Top of the Pops on one occasion in the early Seventies.
Peel was among the first DJs to understand the impact of punk rock, playing the Ramones, the Clash and the Sex Pistols on Radio 1 before any other mainstream presenter.
He encouraged bands such as the Smiths, the Cure, Pulp, Keane, Siouxsie and the Banshees, the Undertones, Joy Division and more recently the White Stripes.
Peel also played reggae and hiphop ahead of any other British DJ, and many modern rock stars owe a part of their success to him.
and here's an Interesting True Fact from the fingertips of the Lady Herself:
Honey has huge meaning for me. When I wrote Honey Chain a hundred years ago, I had this image of us all as honey being strained through this life, and coming out the other side whole because honey is pure and never rots. It was much later that I read in the Upanishads about Madhu Vidya, mystic honey, and the interconnectedness of all things, using honey to mean essence. So that was weird.
Plus, bees.
funny you should ask, ughaibu - i've been thinking about Her (and Her illustrious stepsister and their respective and collective bands) a fair bit lately with an eye toward posting something about them in the Music Trivia and Knowledge fellowship...but haven't figured out what to say, so i haven't said anything. :)
on Her message boards on tanyadonnelly.com, Tanya talks about going through "a spell of bad spirits and temporary loss of mojo" of which apparently a recent week in VT (playing, i suppose) relieved Her. so i'm really not sure, but it sounds like She's back in the saddle again...though She made no reference to specific future plans in the (one) post i read so far...
This is my 1st time posting here...I love country, oldies & 70's & 80's music. I have a strong dislike to heavy metal & rap (or hip-hop) type of music myself.
