John Peel October 31 1978



So this weekend I listened to the 1st of 400! tapes that the Peel Yahoo group uncovered recently. This one from October 78. A little crackly, but just amazing to hear a show from all those years ago. He was just so far ahead of the game, playing lots of great punk stuff like the Undertones, 999 and the Clash as well as sessions from the Damned and Wire. amongst the more well known stuff he drops tracks by Kleenex and Prag Veg... some classic Burning Spear and even some Kraut rock from Can. I can hardley wait to hear the rest of these shows..... enjoy!!
