Good morning DJSimon and fellow Racketeers!
DJ Simon (host) 8:08:58 AM
Hiya Bradgic (can't get used to the new handle).
Robert Kerrigan 8:16:39 AM
Good morning to all. Perhaps over the next couple of weeks we will be lucky enough to hear some Killing Joke from one of their Peel session?
DJ Simon (host) 8:17:05 AM
Absolutely! I meant to mention that everyone can post requests here for next week's show.
Andrew Herman 8:18:59 AM
I second the request for KJ

JeffB 8:51:11 AM
hum along to homicide :)
Jamie YBN 8:54:47 AM
Interesting to hear the story of "subs"; you must all miss the comradery.
Jamie YBN 8:56:37 AM
The only Peel sessions I have are on an XTC box set i got for Christmas. Great to hear all of this other stuff.
DJ Simon (host) 8:56:48 AM
I so miss being in the studio, seeing the other djs, and the croissants from the caf.
KOTJames 8:57:03 AM
@ JB got a lot of plugs on Saturday Pandemicast since I played a couple I stole from recent syrups. How long does the 2 hour syrup continue?
Jamie YBN 8:57:52 AM
it's like that in the beer industry too. We see out co-workers, but the community is separated these days.
CatLABS JP 8:58:55 AM
Its a well know fact the only good thing to come out of Anthrax is the cover of got the time.
KOTJames 8:59:06 AM
@ J-YBN a fine gift to self would be the 6-CD Set of all Fall Peel Sessions
Andrew Herman 9:00:56 AM
I love how Adam Ant says "Animools"
DJ Simon (host) 9:01:20 AM
Hah! Yes, I was thinking the same thing.
JeffB 9:06:48 AM
@KOTJ presume back to 1hour when students "return" from break. thx for the plugs. i plug you & DJSimon today as "pillars". But today thanks to proprietary audio wizardry I had you backsell a song around 10:30 :)
bruckner4 9:12:25 AM
hullo racket!
-bot 9:12:38 AM
I think one of the 1st Peel Sessions LPs I purchased was of the Birthday Party. Maybe something from that?
DJ Simon (host) 9:13:46 AM
Hey Bruckner!
DJ Simon (host) 9:14:29 AM
@-bot – Heck yeah, I'll put some Birthday Party on next week's show. I think I opened with them last year – kick arse performance.
Bruce Pierce 9:15:16 AM
Good morning racketeers! (?)
KOTJames 9:14:39 AM
Full disclosure: Suggestions given were from the greatest Fall and KOTJ fan Stefan of https://thefall.org/ list of top 10 fave fall songs. Blindness was mine, a fan fave!
Bruce Pierce 9:15:39 AM
[Just checking in for attendance ;D]
DJ Simon (host) 9:15:40 AM
Good day, Bruce!
KOTJames 9:16:34 AM
Peel's fave band, The Fall. "...always different, always the same." - John Peel.
JeffB 9:18:46 AM
Fall Peel session sounds like their studio recordings. So good.
PeterC 9:25:53 AM
I played leave the capitol on thursday! apparently Slates wasn't on the bot, but it is now...
PeterC 9:26:39 AM
I've never heard this before...this is great...
DJ Simon (host) 9:26:48 AM
This is the part where my mic was off and I forgot to cut out the dead air.
DJ Simon (host) 9:29:12 AM
James quoted Whole Wide World on his show Friday, so I had to play it after The Fall.
KOTJames 9:29:13 AM
I am no expert....ask around.

John Peel was a BBC presenter from 1967 until he died in 2004. Only 37 years. Seems like his career spanned a couple more decades than that.
Barry Hart 9:35:22 AM
Good morning,DJ Simon & Racketeers,loving the music & the John Peel puns.Looking forward to the Fall tribute show on 22 January.Hope everyone has a great week.
Jamie YBN 9:36:25 AM
Sandra La's Super Special Peel Sessions Spectacular Set?
DJ Simon (host) 9:36:43 AM
Happy Monday, Barry!
DJ Simon (host) 9:37:16 AM
@Jamie – Say that three times real fast!
KOTJames 9:41:37 AM
more fall peel. tee hee.
DJ Simon (host) 9:41:58 AM
@JeffB – I always associate John Peel with mid 70's punk and 80's post-punk, though there are a bunch of sessions from the late 60's and early 70's with artists like Think Lizzy, Rory Gallagher, Black Sabbath. I think I'll touch on some of that next week.
KOTJames 9:43:19 AM
Approved by DJS: The KOTJ Radio and Pandemicast Archive: www.artguy.com/KOTJ.html first three radio shows are 2 best of 2020 and the best of best of 2019.
Jamie YBN 9:44:24 AM
Sandra La - Big FGTH fan, saw them in Frankfurt...was super spectacular actually.
DJ Simon (host) 9:47:14 AM
@Jamie - Sandra sends a thumbs up.
JeffB 9:47:45 AM
Hang Onto Yourself a slick polished studio production. But friggin' Bowie pulls it off live here.
