[peel] Most surprising records played

[Thomas Blatchford]

i do remember him playing a cover of 'It Looks Like I'm Up Shit Creek Again' 
sometime (within the last five years of shows) and back-announcing it by saying 
that he never liked Tom Waits at all but maybe after hearing that song he should 
give him another try. Not sure if it ever happened.

and when he sat in for Anne Nightingale, he would play Randy Van Warmer (whose 
name was a favourite with him, clearly) and once back announced a record by 
saying, "And that was a load of Ships from Ian Hunter."

I'd like to see a list of Peel's Dislikes - most were canny and more obvious, 
like U2, but if he didn't play Tom Waits, he probably saw him, as some people 
do, as a bit of a put-on. Who knows?
