	BBC - Radio 1 - Keeping It Peel - Sessions
		There was a mythology to Peel Sessions: musicians went into the studio to record their three or four track session, only to emerge a few hours later blinking and dazed, having made a helluva racket that would go down in history as the making of the band.
		The Peel Sessions began when John realised he had to play by more rules than he was used to at pirate radio when he joined the BBC in 1967.
		Peel would have a brief chat with his producer, John Walters, usually about artists that took their fancy that week.

	John Peel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Peel's reputation as the most important DJ breaking unsigned acts into the mainstream was such that in 1983 unsigned artist Billy Bragg drove to the Radio 1 studios with a mushroom biryani and a copy of his record after hearing Peel mention that he was hungry, the subsequent airplay launching his career.
		Peel was diagnosed with diabetes in 2001 and two weeks before his death he told friend and colleague Andy Kershaw that the move of his show, in summer 2004, back an hour from a 10pm start to 11pm, caused him a lot of stress and that he felt marginalised and unappreciated.

	PJ Harvey - The Peel Sessions: 1991-2004 - Island Records - CD
		Getting his notoriety with the Peels Sessions on BBC Radio with the likes of Pink Floyd, Lennon, and Bowie amongs hundreds of others, The Peel Sessions have shown an importance recognized the world over and for decades (read his biography courtesy of BBC Radio).
		Thirdly, with the passing of John Peel and the possession of these tapes from PJ Harvey sessions, it becomes a tribute and a love letter to one of the most effectual DJ s in Rock’s storied history.
		With 12 cuts from 5 session periods (1 of them a tribute; Peel died a little over a month before the final session on this album), the heat from this album may really be too intense.

	Remembering "the Peel Sessions." - By Douglas Wolk - Slate Magazine
		Peel invited very raw, very promising artists to record for him; by the late '70s, a particularly good Peel session could instantly popularize a band.
		But Peel carefully avoided becoming a relic of that historical moment: He was also an early adopter of hip-hop in the early '80s, electronic dance music in the early '90s, and the British grime scene in the last couple of years.
		Even in his 60s, Peel had the instinct for novelty of a 17-year-old music fanatic—his undying fondness for late-'80s grind-core bands like Extreme Noise Terror and Napalm Death was something of a joke among his listeners, few of whom shared it.

	Get Ready to ROCK! Interview with radio broadcaster John Peel who is the longest serving DJ on BBC Radio 1
		Most of the sessions would be memorable in their own right, and John couldn’t remember any unmemorable ones.
		Of the few downsides (there’s been too many sessions for any to really stand out), there was one session that was unbroadcastable it was so bad; tactfully, John says it would be unkind to mention who it was.
		Also, Morrissey (the former Smiths frontman) pulled one of his own sessions because he was unhappy with the way it turned out, and it would have been unfair to go against his wishes.

	Pulp : The Peel Sessions - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		This set cuts out that long decade of struggle -- since there are no Peel sessions documenting the stilted steps forward during the '80s, those awkward transitions are nowhere to be found, which makes the leap forward from 1981 to 1993 all the more startling.
		Once "Refuse to Be Blind" wraps up, The Peel Sessions jumps forward 12 years to the summer of 1993, just as Pulp was leaving the indie Gift behind for the major Island -- just as the band was beginning to blossom, actually.
		It's as if that long wait to return to Peel's studios made Pulp determined to make each of their (what turned out to be many) sessions count, even when they were stars, even when they were quietly winding down their career, and that's what makes this a necessary addendum to their career.

	The Perfumed Garden
		Naturally John Peel was amongst the first to recognise exellence of the band and request that they visit Maida Vale to record a session.
		This was the first session Ride recorded for the BBC and captures the band at the height of their powers.
		Carcass could frequently be heard on the John Peel show and recorded their first Peel Session just before the release of their second album "Symphonies of Sickness" in 1989.

	OMD NEWS : PEEL SESSIONS
		Meanwhile, the Peel Sessions continue to gather reviews: Q Magazine comment that "the simple pop appeal of their early stuff is undeniable and Messages, Enola Gay and Genetic Engineering just about make up for the absence of Joan Of Arc, Maid Of Orleans and Telegraph".
		The Peel Sessions is being released simultaneously in Belgium as well as the UK on April 24th.
		The Peel Sessions have been rescheduled for a March 27th release date, although it looks more likely that an early April release will be the case.

	sound of the suburbs: Peel Sessions 23
		The band became firm Peel favorites, maybe because of their honest approach, nothing to do with them being from up North, and were to record four sessions between July 1985 and November 1987.
		From the first one I have not chosen the most obvious of songs in 'Stand At Ease' what actually inspired my choice is the similarity between the beginning of the number and Billy Braggs early work as both artists were signed to the same label.
		By the summer of '88 they were no more, leaving us with just two albums, those Peel sessions and memories of four ordinary looking lads who did a damn good job of making pop music mean something more than just pop.

		Coming out at the same time as Stereolab and PJ Harvery (with both of whom they shared a record label as well as a previous Peel Sessions compilation on Strange Fruit), Th’ Faith Healers were a gritty, noisy version of their peers but were no less revelatory.
		Besides displaying a band that was just as powerful when taped live as in the studio, the sessions also boast some surprises, including a few songs written for their never-recorded fourth album.
		This CD compiles all the songs from the four sessions, recorded between 1992 and 1994, and sheds new light on a band that is too often overlooked when the innovators of the last decade are summarized.

		Long time awaited "The John Peel Sessions" (Strange Fruit, SFRSCD104) by LAIBACH consists of two sessions produced for this legendary British DJ.
		The second session dates just some ten months later in April of '87, shortly after Laibach's victorious concert at the Festival Hall in Ljubljana, Slovenia in February of '87, and the launching of the "Opus Dei" album.
		The first session brings three songs: "Krvava gruda - plodna zemlja", "Krst (pod Triglavom)" based on the poem "Krst pri Savici" by the greatest Slovenian poet France Preseren, and "Life Is Life", cover of the well known pop hit.

		The 1991 session consists of four songs from Dry, and was recorded almost one year before the debut.
		The 1993 session is comprised of two lesser known, but no less moving tracks.

	CD Review: Warp Peel Sessions
		These 3 relatively cheap cds (around $7.25 apiece) are a welcome blast from the recent past to the 'IDM' sound of the early to mid-90's, pre-drum 'n bass, drill 'n bass, etc. The Ae and Black Dog sessions were recorded in October of '95 and the BoC was recorded in July of '98.
		Nothing here is suprising to a fan of any of these 3 groups, each session captures their respective sound at the time of recording.
		The Black Dog's session has 4 songs that again, to the best of my knowledge, are not available elsewhere ("Psycosyin" appeared on '94's excellent "Spanners" album).

		The session itself was a bit of a culture shock for the Hot Snakes.

		On their first trip to the UK, Hot Snakes were asked by legendary disc jockey John Peel to come into the BBC studios at Maida Vale and record a session for his radio show.
