Idolator
To mark John Peel Day—which honors the British DJ, musical omnivore, and rock hero who passed away two years ago this month—we'd like to present a few songs by The Fall. The Mark E. Smith-led outfit was a favorite of Peel's, and in the above clip, you can get a glimpse of him introducing the band on the BBC; two tracks from The Fall's endless trove of Peel Sessions are linked below.
The Fall - Rebellious Jukebox (Peel Session 15.6.78) [MP3, link expired]
The Fall - Hip Priest (Peel Session, 31.3.81) [MP3, link expired]

He was truly, truly one of the good ones.
What was it he said about The Fall...."they always sound different, they always sound the same."
R.I.P. John Peel-uh!
oops:
"They are always different, they are always the same."
can't be misquoting John Peel.
