we haven’t seen a John Peel
John, Kurt, and, Karlheinz are an odd grouping but I get your drift connecting them all as cultural icons.

Concerning Peel, Peel Sessions were like a seal of approval that was out there before you dug into your pockets.

Totally agree about the tributaries and would also say the tributaries that have replaced Peel are electronic. Last.FM, Pandora, Spotify, etc. Not to mention, to me certain posters on here (yourself included) are like today's version of John Peel TO ME. That's a small tributary but it's real. If you recommend it and I don't know it, I'm looking into it. I've even made a playlist of stuff you've mentioned that I need to check out.
