As the BBC continues their project to release the entirety of their radio and television history online, the publically-funded British organization
has added a nearly definitive collection of every Peel Session broadcast from the legendary BBC broadcaster John Peel.
He was BBC Radio 1's longest-serving DJ and in recent years had also presented Home Truths on Radio 4. He was most famous for being one of the first
DJs to give exposure to punk, reggae and hip-hop, long before they crossed over into the mainstream.
Currently, the list also includes samples of every performed track recorded, nearly 4000 sessions and 2000 separate artists. You can check them out
here: John Peel sessions.
