Listening to John Peel was a rite of passage. It meant you were officially a moody teen. I was a devoted listener, even if most of the music he played was actually quite horrible.

Really sad news, you can see from all the tributes from musicians on the BBC web site what a huge influence he was. RIP the last decent DJ on Radio 1
