HELP THE AGED CELEBRATE!
PULP, NICK CAVE and BILLY BRAGG all played a surprise secret
show at LONDON KING'S COLLEGE last night (September 25) to
commemorate veteran radio and television man JOHN PEEL's 40
years in broadcasting.
The trio of acts each played brief sets, recorded for broadcast
at a later date on BBC Radio 1, with each thanking Peel for
what he has done for them, and talking warmly about their
memories of the man.
Following Billy Bragg, Nick Cave, solo onstage with just a
piano, played old classics 'The Ship Song', 'Are You The One
That I've Been Waiting For?' and 'God Is In The House' from
new album 'No More Shall We Part'.
Pulp, meanwhile, started by thanking Peel, "without whom we
wouldn't exist', before opening with a cover of the Duane Eddy
surf-guitar classic 'Peter Gunn', a favourite of Peel's. They
rounded up their set with 'Sorted For E's And Wizz', 'Help The
Aged' - which they dedicated specifically to Peel - 'This Is
Hardcore' and a barnstorming version of new single 'Sunrise'.
Boy George and former Wedding Present frontman David Gedge were
among the guests.
