Wow – a nice find! And what a big softy he was in those days – 10cc, I'm not in Love, indeed! 
I don't know about Filezilla, but I've been using R Browser on my Mac to upload to the Mooo server, with no such problems. You only need the free (FTP only) version.
Looking forward to more...
Cheers

I nearly fell off my chair. How on earth could we have been acquaintances and shared several professional enthusiasms – including Peel - for over 20 years, and never in all that time discussed his off-air tape collection? Anyway, John went back to his tapes and a couple of weeks ago presented me with a first batch (yes, that's right, he says there are maybe a few more to come!) of some 9 complete shows from 75-77, plus 3 or 4 other short fragments, and according to my analysis, six of these shows have not previously popped up anywhere (the 3 that have – 1975/11/18, 1975/12/08, and 1975/12/09 - are so close in detail to the familiar versions in the torrents that I have a strong suspicion that John's tapes may be the original source of these, dating to a tape sharing network he contributed these to years ago).
