You can listen to the Steve Lamacq tribute show that was originally broadcast on Tuesday evening at 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/index.shtml?logo
and click the link to the show (its there somewhere - easy to find). I listened to it last night, and its all tracks from various Peel sessions from throughout the years. No Planes unfortunately, but there was a Fall track, plus an excellent version of Love Will Tear Us Apart, a great Culture track and far too much more to mention. 

Recommended.

Don't mention The Fall. I did once, but I think I got away with it.

Needless to say, am gutted.

Noel Edmonds alive - John Peel is dead.

Never has there been more definite proof of the non-existence of God.

Coat, get my, but it's what I think.

I'm sure we've all got somebody's Peel session somewhere. I can't claim to have followed his radio show that avidly but I've got loads to thank him for. In particular, he championed Tangerine Dream in the early 70s, who are one of my favourites. And, of course, he was always a big advocate of The Fall.
He was one of those broadcasters who was always going to be there. Strange now that he's not. Irreplaceable, of course.

I think that all of us lovers of non-mainstream music are sad at the moment following the death of John Peel. The broadsheets seem to have gone to town on him today, and quite right too. Someone has said that he's the most important or influencial person in popular music of the past 40 years, and for non-mainstream music its difficult to argue against that. He also came across as a thoroughly decent, likeable human being, who just happened to be 
      extraordinarily passionate about music.

      He will be missed by musicians as much as listeners.

      RIP John.
