The Story Of... Peel Acres

The Blessed Madonna is joined by Tom Ravenscroft for The Story Of... Peel Acres.

Peel Acres was the affectionate name the late legendary broadcaster John Peel gave to his family home in Suffolk.

It is still where his incredible 26,000 strong record collection lives, alongside 40,000 singles and thousands of CDs…

And over the last few months on ´óÏó´«Ã½ 6 Music - John’s son Tom Ravenscroft has been inviting some special guests to dig through that collection for a special series entitled Peel Acres. He joins Marea to chat more about it and play some of the records they discovered.
