THE JOHN PEEL SHOW - RADIO ONE

FRIDAY 22ND OCTOBER 11:27PM UK TIME...

FOR THOSE OF YOU CURRENTLY LISTENING TO ME PRESENTING THE JOHN PEEL SHOW ON RADIO ONE...

I WAS ASKED TO PRE-RECORD THIS SHOW ON MONDAY NIGHT AS THOSE IN CHARGE OF THE PEEL SHOW WOULDN'T LET ME DO IT LIVE...

I STARTED THE SHOW WITH OUR 25 YEAR OLD PEEL SESSION 'DESPERATE JOURNALIST' SONG - IT HAS BEEN EDITED OUT...

I ALSO KNOW WHAT 'COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN' SOUNDS LIKE - I PLAYED IT ON MONDAY NIGHT - THE 15 MINUTE LED ZEP DIRGE THAT JUST HAPPENED HAS MADE ME FEEL QUITE SICK...

THE VERSION OF 'JEWEL' BY THE CRANES I PLAYED ON MONDAY WAS THE ALBUM VERSION NOT THE REMIX...

AND I WOULD NOT DREAM OF TALKING OVER THE END OF SONGS LIKE A FUCKING DJ... NOR WOULD I CUT A SONG SHORT...

WHO KNOWS WHAT OTHER 'AMENDMENTS' THOSE IN CHARGE OF THIS PROGRAMME HAVE MADE...

I LOOK FORWARD TO THE NEXT 90 MINUTES WITH A GROWING FEELING OF DESPAIR...

12:10AM UK TIME...

UPDATE OF DESPAIR

AAAH - THE WRONG THIN LIZZY SONG!

AM I ALONE IN SUSPECTING A STITCH-UP HERE?

12:35AM UK TIME...

AND NOW THEY'RE JUMPING THE TOM WAITS SONG...

WHAT A BIZARRE SERIES OF COINCIDENCES

ALL THESE THINGS GOING WRONG EH?

AND I'M EVEN BOB ON THE R1 WEBSITE...

I BIDE MY TIME...

SMILING

THIS IS WHAT I ACTUALLY PLAYED ON MONDAY...
