A Liverpool legend and a huge Liverpool fan and one of the greatest D.J.'s of all time passes on. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/music/3955369.stm http://edition.cnn.com/2004/SHOWBIZ/Music/10/26/john.peel.dead/index.html For those that were not aware of Peel's influence you only need to go into any record shop and find any number of decent band's "Peel sessions" to see his impact for the last 30 or more years. He will be missed. RIP John.
A true champion for progressive and often marginalized music . . . . He is adored by many and will surely be missed.
The days of established radio, DJ's, programmers, etc, etc giving a flying ******** about the underdog and little guys is officially OVER.
