On my show this month:
Plenty of great new releases to sink your teeth into this month, including much-anticipated albums from Yip Man of Scotland, Bill Callahan and Blanck Mass, among others. Germany's MDMA pay tribute to a legendary French football icon, something fantastically noisy is served up by Brazil's Crueldade and the new EP from Japan's fabulous Thomas Imposter label throws up a couple of belters from Belgium's Freedman and Germany's Betweenzone.
Our monthly Peel Back... features dips into some classic Peel offerings from 40, 30 and 20 years ago this month and elsewhere we feature covers of tunes from The Beatles, the Stones and T Rex, two of which are culled from our featured compilation, the Cherry Red Electrical Language box set.

Biography:
My music-related activities over the years have been restricted to such peripheral activities as running a venue and attempting to manage a band to putting together radio shows variously named The A-Z of Punk, Idiot Jukebox and The Diamond Mine as well as masquerading as The Phantom Surfer to produce The History of Surf Music and unintentionally controversial hour-long documentary Surfin' East Kilbride, all of which have made appearances on various community radio stations over the years.

I'm the author of a book on John Peel's Festive Fifty called, with great imagination, The Festive Fifty. I edited a fanzine called The Backdoor in the late eighties, fronted a band called The Beached Whales that never got round to gigging and played amplifier lead and slides with a band who'd rather I didn't make my association with them public. I have what I believe is a healthy contempt for music journalism (even when it's good) and believe the best way to start a band is to put four people who can't play in a room with some second hand instruments, don't feed 'em and don't let them out until they've produced something great. I've tried it on several occasions and no one's died yet.
