Soloman Tump Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Linky I took this from the fabric website many years ago, and decided to upload it this evening. It is a collection of John's answers to an interview ahead of his fabric cd release. I think its fascinating and I hope some of you enjoy listening to this if you havn't heard it already (the CD was released in December 2002 so this must be from just before then as he talks about the state of the football league). Only annoying thing is that the questions have been edited out - but you can guess what most of them are. He then talks about each of the tracks on the mix and his reasons for choosing them. 1. Asa-Chang & Junray - Hana (Excerpt) - The Leaf Label Ltd 2. The Soledad Brothers - Break 'em On Down - Estrus Records 3. Don Carlos - Late Night Blues - RAS 4. MC DET - Hipsteppin' - Times Two Records 5. The Velvelettes - Needle In A Haystack - Universal Music 6. Bad Livers - Lust for Life - Mark Rubin 7. Trouble Funk - Let's Get Small - Island Records 8. The Capris - There's A Moon Out Tonight - Sony 9. The Fall - Mr. Pharmacist - Beggars Banquet Records 10. Smith And Selway - 15.5 Remake - Tronic Music 11. Jimmy Reed - Too Much - Vee Jay 12. Maloko - In The Midnight Hour - Warners 13. Derrick Morgan - Moon Hop - Rounder 14. The Datsuns - In Love - V2 15. The Kingswoods - Purty Vacant - Green Records 16. Sinthetix - Liar - TOV Music 17. Culture - Lion Rock (John Peel Session) - Cultral Foundation Records 18. Act 1 - Tom The Peeper - Polydor 19. Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart - Factory Records 20. Elementz Of Noise - Clock - Emotif Recordings 21. The Cheviot Ranters - Corn Rigs Tunes - Topic Records 22. Marc Smith vs. Safe 'n' Sound - Identify The Beat - Bonkers 23. The Kop Choir - You'll Never Walk Alone - Cherry Red Records 24. The Undertones - Teenage Kicks - Sanctuary All hail this amazing mix, and RIP John Peel. I still really miss his show, and his influence on music in general. Some of his comments in this interview are pure LOLs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest margaret thatcher Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 good call, this is my favourite fabric cd (and one of my fave compilations ever) that found that cover of "in the midnight hour" on london records and it gets dropped regularly at house parties when everyone's arseholed.

kaini Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 ahhh it's been an age since i heard that asa-chang and junray track, it's great. *youtubes* i recently picked up 'the olivetti chronicles' which is a collection of his writings for various newspapers and music journals - the longest is 5 pages maybe, it's a great bathroom book. god, i remember that his death really shook me; i was in bits over it. we won't ever have another dj like john.
