Part Time Punks wraps up its extended tribute to radio DJs from across the pond (fittingly) with a tribute to John Peel, who would have been celebrating his 82nd birthday in just a few days from now...on August 30th. Today's focus will be on dark guitar wielding bands of the 1980s, the first wave of shoegaze bands in the UK in the 90s, and the Czech shoegazers they would inspire later that decade. All in all, many wondrous and rare Peel Session sounds for yer afternoon soundtrack.
