With you there Carolyn. He chose the soundtrack for several 
generations.If you ever wanted to know what was really happening on 
the music scene all you had to do was tune in to John Peel (for 
music with irony) When I came back to this side of the world I was 
amazed and delighted to find him still on the air and still 
immensely, intrinsically cool. What a loss...
