400 Box

From John Peel Wiki

Contents

[edit] Background

  • Page created to track and catalogue the "400 Box" of approximately that number of cassettes featuring material from the John Peel show 1978-82, purchased jointly on eBay by the Peel Mailing List in July 2008. According to Rocker, material on the tapes in fact goes as far as 1987.


[edit] Tape, Date and Gallery pages

The 400 Box arrives at Rocker HQ
  • Tape ID numbers follow Rocker's 400 Box spreadsheet. Data on the individual tapes can be accessed on the appropriate tape pages (T001, etc). An overview of the current status and other details of the various tapes is available at 400 Box (tapes).
  • For information on shows, please see the relevant date pages (07 July 1978, etc). Please feel more than welcome to make corrections or add information, particularly tracklistings and session information. Just use the "Edit" link at the top right of each section. Your help is very much appreciated.
  • A growing selection of files of the shows can be accessed in one place here and here. Many thanks for putting these together, Bill!
  • Some more of the 400 Box Shows shared here
