Just a few reasons why 'Peeley' was so damned important - all the following bands owe John Peel a MASSIVE debt in kick starting their careers:
1960's Captain Beefheart The Velvet Underground Jimi Hendrix The Yarbirds Cream Grateful Dead Jefferson Airplane Arthur Brown 1970's The Faces David Bowie T-Rex The Ramones The Undertones Led Zeppelin New York Dolls Blondie Sex Pistols Iggy & The Stooges Kraftwerk 1980's Joy Division Billy Bragg The Fall Killing Joke New Order The Wedding Present Half Man Half Biscuit The Jesus & Mary Chain Sonic Youth The Smiths The Pogues Nirvana 1990's Pulp Therapy? Underworld Blur Ash Teenage Fanclub PJ Harvey Oasis Supergrass Dinosaur Jr Beck Bentley Rhythm Ace Mouse On Mars Janes Addiction Manic Street Preachers Super Furry Animals Mogwai Man or Astroman? Gorkys Zygotic Mynci Napalm Death Belle & Sebastian 2000's The White Stripes Scissor Sisters Ladytron Sigur Rós The Von Bondies Godspeed You Black Emperor! The Libertines Beta Band The Hives Yeah Yeah Yeah's Grandaddy Keane The Strokes The void he leaves behind is vast - but his legacy immeasurable.
