Yeh I was born at the very end of 62. Though what I so liked about JP was not just that he was so good at moving with the times but that he could take anyone with him.

Yes I have a soft spot for that 82-85 period especially as a lot of the stuff is almost impossible to track down or even identify, and it is a time of your life when music just MEANS so much more. 
But listening to some of the recent Radio Eins or the 200x R1 shows I've quite often been completely bowled over by something contemporary that it's set me on another road of musical discovery.

Most of us seem to like the music of our 15-25 age period for the rest of our lives and look for sounds that are similar to our youth - I was born in 63 so 78 - 88 is my stylee - I am still a postpunk/indie [kid]old man- that is why Mr Peel was so unique - he moved with the times - I still can't quite believed he like the wave your hands in the air repetitive beat music that took hold in late 80s and seems to refuse to go away! But I still listened to Peel sporadically as I always thought he knew more than me about good music and I had to accept it as a personal blindspot! Yes I still listen to "modern music" but its the Vampire Weekends and the like that push my record buttons! Maybe Humphrey and Stuart are my age?
