John Peel OBE - A Fond Farewell
Today saw the funeral of the legendary and inimitable John Peel. I am deeply saddened, as are thousands of others who grew up listening to his dulcet tones. The world has lost a very special human being. He will be sorely missed.
I marked the occasion by playing very very loud (and extremely varied!) music all day, and singing at the top of my voice. It was great. I'm sure John would have approved.
Here are some tributes from listeners.
The irreplaceable and much-loved John Peel
Bye John
Lots of love

Here here. May he rest in peace. Well no, actually may he rest in with the varied and entertaining sounds that made him so happy in life.
(heartily raises glass to him)
Ditto... To me he was the voice of alternative music on radio. Always frank and outspoken, truthful and sincere, he was the 'Guvnor'. Sadly missed but always remembered.
