The John Peel Show

The John peel Show was a long running Radio show that was aired Twice a week on BBC radio Two. It was hosted by the late and legendary DJ John Peel himself and ran for almost 30 years. The show was first broadcast in 1975 and lasted right up til 2024. But sadly it came to an end with the Sudden Death of the DJ, aged 64. Nobody lives forever, but it was sad to hear of his departure.

This show was in my opinion, the best music show on BBC Radio. There were various factors contributing to this verdict. The main factor being his support for up and coming bands. If you had a group or were an artist, you could send your Demo in and he’d try to play it. However, he’d get so much sent into him from all over the world that it was impossible for him to play them all. Groups that caught his eye would often come on the show and play live sessions.

But One of the other great things I loved about John Peel was that he knew lots of listeners would be taping his shows at home. So he would make sure each track had played right out to the end before he said a word. But even when he did talk, it would only be to Introduce each track. However, the BBC conditions required him to do a certain amount of talking on each show. So, he would tell you all about a Tour a particular group is doing. Or an album theyd released. So even the time he had to talk was used constructively.

John Peel Today

It would certainly be True to say that he is gone but not forgotten. Although John Peel himself is dead, his spirit surely lives on. The DJ has been dead for over 20 years now. But we see a lot of his legacy displayed in the styles of many DJs today. John Peel set a new standard for music DJ’s. A Standard worthy of a following.

Back in the day, John Peel was the Only DJ that operated the way he did. But nowadays we see his style reflected in the styles of many DJs today. There’s been many a good DJ over the years, but none have left an impact like Peely did. It’s quite an achievement not only to provide your listeners with great music. But to remould how music is broadcast is something special.

The John Peel Show

BBC Radio One’s legendary broadcast, ‘The John Peel Show’ was probably, at least in my own opinion, the best Radio show ever produced by the BBC. He was certainly a Pioneer in Radio Broadcasting. Although, he had come from the old Radio Caroline Pirate radio Ship and Music was his main focus. Soi he was already much better than what Radio One usually played.

Back in the old days before the Internet, MP3s and Digital Technology, we used to use Cassette tapes to record songs from the radio that we liked the sound of. However, this could be tricky to get a decent recording when you had some Radio One DJ rabbiting on and interrupting the song. But John peel would take care to make sure he didnt interrupt because he knew people would be taping tunes from the show.

However, I think the thing Peely was best known for was for his promoting of the smaller and lesser known groups. Thousands of bands sent their demo tapes into the show in the hope that theyd get aired. But unfortunately, many didnt as he only had so much time on air and theyd keep flooding in. When he died in 2004, he had a full barn of unplayed demo’s. Although his family have tried to release what they can. But it’d probably take a hundred lifetimes to get through them all. However, there have been many bands over the years owe their fame to the legendary DJ.

The Peel Sessions Live

John Peel was a famous DJ who worked with the BBC for over 40 years and had his own self titled ‘John Peel Show’ which ran almost 30 years from 1975 til his death in 2004. In my opinion, John Peel was the best DJ the BBC ever had.

There are various factors that bring me to that verdict. But not least of those is the fact that he would get bands into the studio to play live sessions. Many groups played more than One session with John Peel and some even played numerous sessions.

The John Peel Radio Show, September 25 1978

Here’s a good little Episode for lovers of Punk and New Wave. This episode of The John Peel Show was first broadcast on the 18th of September,1978. This was right in the heart of a time when the Punk movement was in its Hey day and New Wave also being the tunes of the day. Peeli gives us almost Two hours of non stop classics.

If you think the Tracklisting be slow has a mistake in it where it lists the Undertones classic ‘Teenage Kicks’ Twice, it’s not. He actually plays it Twice in a row. This was John Peels favourite song. He always said that when he dies, he wants the songs lyrics ‘Teenage Dreams, So Hard To Beat’ inscribed on his grave stone.

The John Peel show

John Peel

The John Peel show was a Radio Show on BBC Radio 2 which ran for years up til the DJs death in 2004. He was one of the first broadcasters to play Psychedelic Rock and Progressive Rock records on British Radio. He was most famous for his promotion of small, obscure Bands that wee unheard of and promoted them. Way back before the days of the Internet, if you had a band, you sent your demo tape into John Peel and hope it got heard by him and played.

However, he got thousands of Demo tapes sent into him. I once saw a documentary where he’d enter his office of a normal day and his door would have a massive pile of mail lying piled up behind it. He’d have to shoulder the door to get in. So you can imagine the backload of tracks he had to play. But when he died, the barn that he owned was stacked full of stuff that he still hadn’t had a chance to listen to yet.

Respect for the Tunes

But I think the thing I loved most about John Peel as a D.J was the fact that he let each single play fully right to the end before he said a word. Most DJs rabbit on over the music. Disturbing it. So annoying. Again, Back in the pre internet days before MP3 Downloads that take a few seconds, we used to tape things from the radio.

This required putting a cassette tape in the player and pressing record n play to capture songs we liked on the Radio. Since Peeli was an ex pirate ship radio D.J from the Radio Caroline days, he was onboard with this. So he always made sure he let the track play right to the end before talking. He also liked to be constructive when he did talk. As far as John Peel was concerned, he was there to play music.

However, broadcasting rules required DJs to have a certain amount of taking in the 2 hour slot he’d gave on a Tuesday and Thursday nights between 8pm and 10pm. So instead of just babbling Luke most D JJ s seemed to do for the same of it, he’d use the time wisely. Between every second song he would tell you the song that had just played and introduced the next track. But every half hour or so, hed spend about Five minutes telling all about a group or a new release, etc

Who are Nouvelle Vague?

Nouvelle Vague are a French New-Wave cross Bossa Nova band who have been recording since the release of their debut album in 2004. This was a self titled album called ‘Nouvelle Vague’. The group was initially formed by colleagues Olivier Libaux and Marc Colin who were both already Musicians and producers who worked together on various projects in the past..

The rest of the group has always been a varying cast of different members, mainly female on backing vocals. Many of the Individuals who have participated in Nouvelle Vague over the years have since went off to pursue Successful solo careers. These artists include Melanie Pain, Phoebe Killdeer, Camille and Nadéah Miranda. Sadly Olivier Libaux passed away in 2021. But the group have carried on in his absence.

The group came into formation when Libaux decided to do a Bossa Nova styled version of the hit song ‘Love will tear us apart’ by Joy Division. He sought Marc’s help and although Colin described the concept as ‘Crazy but exiting’, it seemed to work well. They tried out the same Idea again with the Clash’s ‘Guns of Brixton’ and a similar styled cover of Depeche Mode’s ‘Just cant get enough’. These seemed to go down well. So they carried on with another Ten tracks and produced their debut album.

What did you think?

Well, I must say I enjoyed listening to that album. Although I always do enjoy hearing Nouvelle Vague. But especially when I’m just in the mood for that kinda French Café style music. It’s the sorta music that works well as background music in any situation no matter how you’re feeling. How about you? Did you like the group? Did you enjoy the album?

Who are Nouvelle Vague

Nouvelle Vague are a French New-Wave Bossa Nova group that was formed and led by  French musicians and producers Olivier Libaux and Marc Collin.  The pair worked together a lot and decided to try out making a Bossa Nova style version of Joy Division song ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’. This was a concept that Colin describes as “Crazy but Exiting”.

But the track worked out well and having done similar with the classic Clash song ‘Guns of Brixton’ and Depeche Mode’s ‘Just Can’t Get Enough’ to their satisfaction, the pair decided to press on with a whole album. So they created another Ten New Wave classics for a debut album which they aptly named ‘Nouvelle Vague’, the French words for ‘New Wave’. This was also the name they decided to name the band.

Libaux and Colin were the bands core members. However, they had a long list of different artists on vocals coming and going over the years since their formation. Many of the artists who have performed with Nouvelle Vague have also had successful solo careers. Some of these Include Camille, Phoebe Killdeer, Mélanie Pain, and Nadéah Miranda. Libaux sadly passed away in 2018. However, the group still carries on.

One Way Or Another by Blondie



One Way or Another Lyrics


One way or another, I’m gonna find ya
Im gonna get ya, get ya, get ya, get ya
One way, or another Im be you
Im gonna see ya, I’ll see ya, I’ll see ya. I’ll see ya
One day maybe next week
Im gonna meet ya, meet ya
One day
Im gonna meet ya

I will drive past
And when the lights are
I’ll wait in your

One way or Another im gonna find ya
I’ll find ya
One way or another
Im gonna be ya
One way or another
Im gonna
One day maybe next week, I’m gonna meet ya
I’ll meet ya, meet ya, i’ll meet ya, i’ll meet ya

And when the lights are all out
Ill follow your place down town
Your hanging out

One way or another, I’m gonna lose ya
Im gonna give you the slip
A slip of the wrist, or another, i’m gonna lose ya
I’ll lose ya, i’ll lose ya, lose ya, lose ya,
One way or another, I’m gonna lose ya
Im gonna give you the slip
