Listen again to James Holden and Tom Ravenscroft rummaging through John Peel’s record collection for the Peel Acres show for BBC 6 Music: GO>>

I am continually surprised at the number of people who haven’t heard the odd and catchy songs of Glasgow’s strangest son, #ivorcutler Poet, musician, performer and weapons-grade eccentric, he spent many years quietly teaching music to young children and appearing on radio shows like #johnpeel His music is wistful, bizarre and above all, sticky. You will whistle these tunes in the shower or while doing something tedious and they will raise both your spirits and your own levels of #eccentricity to about where they should be.

I didn’t grow up with the velvet tones of #johnpeel in my ears, but by the 1980s, in my teens, I knew the John Peel name really well. You could easily find a #peelsession recording in the import section of the many #localrecordshops in #lasvegas I have many! I distinctly remember the first time I heard #torococorot I walked into #BigB’srecords on Maryland Parkway. They were playing #theamateurview That day in #1999 I became a great admirer of all their music made together and with other collaborations. I’m playing this on a crispy cool, sunny Saturday and it sounds fantastic! The sessions were recorded between 1997-1999.
