Totally agree.
He had an ear for interesting music (and a fair amount of complete shite) but ever since he died the amount of people jumping on the Peely death wagon has been incredible but not really that surprising.
Do we really need another compilation like this? Bit tacky.

I completely agree. What a missed opportunity not to include exclusive content.

A truer compilation would surely include songs by the likes of "Bogshed","The Three Johns","Microdisney","The Monochrome Set",and so on.I know this would'nt sell very well,but it's probably more along the lines of what Peel might choose.
Oh and not forgetting "Misty in Roots".
