Good Night & Good Riddance: How Thirty-Five Years of John Peel Helped to Shape Modern Britain is a social history, a diary of a nation's changing culture — a man who can legitimately be called the most influential figure in post-war British popular music. Without the support of John Peel, it's unlikely that innumerable artists — from David Bowie to Dizzee Rascal, Jethro Tull to Joy Division — would have received national radio exposure. But Peel's influence goes much deeper than this. Whether he was championing punk, reggae, jungle or grime, he had a unique relationship with his audience that was part taste-maker, part trusted friend.

The book focuses on some 300 shows between 1967 & 2004, giving a thorough overview of Peel's broadcasting career & placing it in its cultural & social contexts. Peel comes alive for the reader, as do the key developments that kept him at the cutting edge — the changes in his tastes; the changes in his thinking. Just like a Peel show,Good Night & Good Riddance is warm, informative & insightful, & wears its enthusiasm proudly.
