Miscellaneous-amusing-clips-and-anecdotes

[saipanda]

Just to echo Steve and say many thanks to everyone, including Alan, for sharing all this material with us -- compilations, full shows, short clips, everything. It's all very much appreciated by me for one, and many others I'm sure. It's fantastic to able able to listen to so much Peel from different eras and I only wish there were more hours in the day. 

If people who are not in a position to share stuff would like to make a contribution by helping out on the Wiki with pages, listings, edits, corrections, etc for new (or old) shared material, please feel more than welcome. Part of the aim is to make it easy for people to keep track of what's been kindly shared by people on this list.

Please get in touch with me or Steve off list or over there if you're not sure where to start.

Having said that, will get pages up for Alan's latest (and previous) up on the Wiki right now. 

Cheers,

Steve

To be truthful with you, I've downloaded everything you uploaded, but have been so busy with this and that (but no other, even more unfortunately) that I have scarcely had the time to even listen to them, let alone give them the Wiki attention they deserve. The good folk like yourself, Ian Parkin and Mike with his wonderful Best Ofs seem to have been sidelined in favour of the complete shows (I'm trying to make up the deficit on the Wiki: one of Ian's best ofs and nine of Mike's now have pages to themselves): I would, however, urge people to listen to these as they contain much material not otherwise available, and in an easily digestible format (i.e. uncluttered by acres of what seems to me to be very samey drum'n'bass). I promise I will try and get round to cataloguing them as soon as I can, and am grateful to you for taking the time to make these available (and for including such detailed track listings!)
