Huge archive of John Peel Sessions. Hundreds of artists between the 60s and 2000s played live on John’s Radio 1 show in the UK including many, many alternative and indie acts.

Here’s one of my favourites, PJ Harvey playing Shela-na-gig in 1991:

Smashing pumpkins released a few tracks from their Peel Session, would be cool to know if there were more songs recorded but not on that release. Thanks, this is a very cool archive!

I had no idea there were so many complete Peel Sessions on YouTube. But somehow I'm not surprised, that site truly is like The Jukebox Of Alexandria.

So far, I've saved three posts on lemmy. This is #4. Thanks OP!

Thank you, this is brilliant. Met John a couple of times, real nice bloke - still miss him.
