Kats Karavan - The History Of The John Peel Show

VARIOUS ARTISTS Kats Karavan - The History Of The John Peel Show (2009 UK 74-track 4-CD album set - The late great John Peel was the champion of the obscure and unheard. The DJ that, for decades, introduced generations of teenagers to new music and gave hundreds of bands their first mainstream broadcast and whose In-Session recordings are the stuff of legend and spawned an entire series of their own. Astonishingly, it's 5 years since his passing and a new generation has grown up not knowing what it was like listening to a DJ who would play Bloc Party and then Ivor Cutler, Yeah Yeah Yeah's and then Bong-Ra, Linton Kwesi Johnson and then The Misunderstood. Universal Music [with the full approval of John's family] have taken on the unenviable task of trying to recreate one of John's shows. With highlights from The Misunderstood [the only band John managed]; the recently discovered Peel Session version of Free's 'Walk In My Shadow'; John's only appearance on record, singing backing vocals to Altered Image's 'Song Sung Blue'; and unreleased recordings by Hole, Thievery Corporation, Marxman, Tiger, Justin Berkovi, Bloc Party, Mercury Rev, And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead, Bong Ra, The Datsuns, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Hellacopters, Soledad Brothers and Your Code Name Is: Milo. Lavishly packaged in a hard back book style 4CD set complete with a picture booklet containing rare and unseen photos alongside recollections from some of the biggest and smallest artists to appear on John's show!)
