Shame on my assistant for not reminding to post a tribute to John Peel, the BBC radio DJ whose contribution to music, cutting-edge rock music in particular, is immeasurable. He was a fellow who loved giving new acts a hand up, and loved turning people on to new sounds.
I own several Peel Session recordings, my favorite being the Cure from 1978.
