... John Peel's mix album on the FabricLIVE series, released 2nd December!
John Peel is undoubtedly Britain's most risk-taking radio DJ. He has collected countless awards and many honorary degrees. He lives in Suffolk with his wife, Sheila, and broadcasts regularly from his home 'Peel Acres'. His long-time friend and producer John Walters (who sadly passed away last year) regarded him as 'the single most important figure in popular music of the last 25 years'. Together they made some of the most ground-breaking radio of an era. Following his spectacular soundclash at the 2000 Sonar Festival, John was invited to host a 'Peel Session' room at FabricLive. This is his first-ever mix CD and it captures his all-out approach to club DJing, moving through five decades of music.
