[peel] John Peel Fanzine Interview - 1984

[Dave Driscoll]

I know what you mean Jake.. 
I have loads of old stuff I haven't sorted out yet..
Funny thing about fanzines is, you can never find the ones you are looking for, when you are looking..
One of my favourites was called "TRENDY HENRY"..
It used to have one word live reviews.
Now it would be very easy just to list "Bollocks.." or "Fantastic.." but they were usually bang on the money
I remember one review…
THE COCTEAU TWINS - University of London 13th December (1983)
"Screeechy!!!"
I was at that gig, & indeed THE COCTEAU TWINS were "Screeechy!!!"

I've got a box full of old fanzines from the 1980s at home and seeing your stuff on Flickr inspired me to sort through them and start scanning all the covers as you have done, which brought back some nice memories....
