intro | This
website details all the sessions recorded for the John Peel Radio 1
programme between October 1992 and December 2002, intended as an
unofficial
appendix to Ken Garner's book In
Session Tonight, which covered the first twenty-five years of
the Peel sessions. The sessions
are listed both chronologically and alphabetically, with session
details
and tracklistings to be found in the index section.
The website was first published online in 1999, and remains woefully out of date in places; notably it is missing what sadly turned out to be the final two years of Peel session details. When Ken Garner approached me about his new book, I put the site back up in a limited form to aid his research. I've now decided to resurrect the site for public view as it stood when it went offline. The much-needed updates may happen, they may not, but at the moment the site is here, as it was, for posterity's sake. |

what Ken
Garner, author of In Session Tonight, the history of
the
first 25 years of the Peel sessions wrote for the site back in December
2000 about his book and

The
John Peel Session Archive was
originally published in 1999 when Rocker sent me seven years' worth of
lovingly compiled lists of everyone who had
appeared on the Peel show since the cut-off date of In Session
Tonight,
with a view to making these available on the web. Since then I have
managed
to collate tracklistings for every pre-recorded studio Peel session
since
October 1992, creating a comprehensive public archive detailing these
unique
recordings, carrying on from Ken Garner's book. Many of the session
tracklists
have been provided from playlist details kept by Tim and Lorcan,
to both of whom many thanks. Thanks are also due to everyone who has helped
out with contributions to this site. Every effort
has been made to ensure all details are as accurate as possible. If you
spot any mistakes or omissions or have any further session details
please let
me know. Missing live sets. ![]() |
