JunoXanadu Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 today is a very sad day for me mine and i know for many others across the world will very much miss listening to Radio 1's longest running DJ - John Peel. He was 65 and died on a working holiday in Peru, suffering a heart attack. Now for many of you prolly wondering who the heck John Peel is.. well if it wasn't for this man, there would have never been any punk, Rock, Indie, Hip Hop blah blah blah music in the UK or possibly the world. He was still very much the ONLY DJ on world wide Radio that never had a set list of records to play.. for the past 40 years.. he played from top bands to the compeltly unkown. He interviewed me also on UK TV's Channel 4 - Sound of the Suburbs - where he asked me about my DJing , he was a very lovely man and a kind friend in the future with the help he gave me by playing some of my friends records out on international radio 1, when i sent them to him. John .. my heart goes with you. A little peice of my soul and music history has died today, as he introduced me to so many new types of music. Again rest in peace John Peel , you will never be forgotten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
