John Peel (1939~ 2004) John Peel was a Broadcasting legend, a one off & a great friend. John has been visiting us at Reddingtons Records since the 70’s & was in the shop as recently as 6 months ago with his lads. A very funny & humorous person & we would often be in stitches, especially when John talked about his beloved Liverpool Football Club, Bill Shankly & Kenny Dalgleish. No doubt he'll always be playing his records up there on his 'Trusty Ole Turn Table'. Our condolences go to Sheila & family. The Greatest & Irreplaceable John Peel ~ You will be truly missed.
