a fabulous curmudgeon

Elvis pays tribute to legendary BBC DJ John Peel ( 1939-2004)

“He had an open mind about music, whether he was bringing the listener the Incredible String Band or The Fall, Mike Hart or Echo and the Bunnymen, and countless bands that appeared only to be heard on his great shows. Our brief conversations were centred on our mutual love of Liverpool FC. A great man, a fabulous curmudgeon, he was as rare as the music that he loved.”
