John Peel archive, some interesting items to be auctioned

I was just reading that the sale made a whopping £465,783. :eek:

And that was just 200 items, albeit the cream of the collection. He had 120,000 records. Lord knows what the whole lot would be worth.
 
Peelie was and always will be priceless.

A landmark that I shall always remember, for all my days - by some weird happenchance, somebody at work had the radio on - very unusual - and his death was announced and various people commented - I shall never forget Jo Whiley in particular. I recall that I was the only one who understood or had even heard of John.

If any one person did more than any other for popularising and exposing off-beat music to the masses, it must be John. RIP, margrave of the marshes
