Peel Acres with Jarvis Cocker
Tom Ravenscroft invites Pulp frontman, Broadcaster and Author Jarvis Cocker to Peel Acres: the home of John Peel's music collection.
Tom Ravenscroft returns with a second series of Peel Acres. Each week, he welcomes a different music lover to the home of his late father, former ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio DJ John Peel, and his legendary record collection.
Tom's guests lend a hand (and two ears) in making sense of this vast music archive, which is comprised of more than 120,000 albums, 12 inches and seven inches, collected over a lifetime and meticulously catalogued.
This episode sees Jarvis Cocker return to the house, which he first visited with Pulp in 1995, as they released their Mercury Music Prize winning album Different Class.
His picks include tracks from Wild Man Fischer, Crime, and something very special from the Warp Record Label.
Also, we hear tales from the early days of his career, including Pulpβs first brush with fame, what it was like growing up in the Sheffield music scene, and Jarvisβs ill-conceived attempt to make a demo cassette more βmemorableβ.
