Playlist: The Music I Shared My Teenage Years With.

Our teenage years are that section of the journey between 'departing childhood' and 'arriving at adulthood' where you are slowed to an eventual halt with delays expected to be lengthy, melodramatic and at times too overbearing for the tenderness of human fragility. No longer travelling, but now 'in transit' and in that 'neither here nor there' position is how you are to remain until normal service has returned, the journey resumed and the final destination gloriously arrived at. The time spent in this transient termination can sometimes run beyond what may be considered acceptable. And what once had a destination seems now to be wildly infinite, flippant, volatile, fucking frustrated, a gigantic self-destructive imbalance that constantly see-saws your spiralling emotions - because you're a dickhead anyway and if ever a dickhead deserved see-saw emotions then you're THAT dickhead - that FUCKING dickhead. But if you share your teenage traumas with pretty decent songs then it's a walk in the park, innit guvnor!

Thatcher

Yes, I know, it's verging on overkill now,t' internet is bursting at the seams with Thatcher articles but, in my defence, I was too busy to post some music-related stuff at the time, then, the worst thing of all - I had to pull out of  a Class War event in London on the Saturday after her death, as they'd always promised they would, but I was holed up somewhere writing stuff for a book I promised I would contribute to. 

So, I'm sure you're familiar with the lists of 'Top 10 Anti Thatcher Songs' doing the rounds. May I present mine to you please? Under the circumstances etc etc.....oh thank you.

Unfortunately Spotify didn't have my top Anti-Thatcher song so it's here on video instead

Playlist: John Peel Sessions

The John Peel Playlist

John Peel is widely acknowledged for promoting artists from various genres including pop, reggae, indie-pop, punk, alternative rock, hardcore, grindcore, death metal and many more. His radio shows were notable for the regular 'Peel Sessions' which usually consisted of about 4 songs played by artists live in the BBC studios, often providing the first national coverage to bands who would later go on to great fame. He joined Radio 1 in 1967 and remained there until his death 37 years later.

Peel's reputation as an important DJ breaking unsigned acts into the mainstream was such that young hopefuls sent him an enormous number of records, CDs, and tapes. When he returned home from a three week holiday at the end of 1986 there were 173 LPs, 91 12"s and 179 7"s waiting for him. In 1983 unsigned artist Billy Bragg drove to the Radio 1 studios with a mushroom biryani and a copy of his record after hearing Peel mention that he was hungry; the subsequent airplay launched his career. 

Here then is a 36 track playlist of songs recorded live from various John Peel Sessions.
