But Peel's influence goes much deeper than this. Whether he was championing punk, reggae, jungle or grime, he had a unique relationship with his audience that was part taste-maker, part trusted friend.The book focuses on some 300 shows between 1967 and 2004, giving a thorough overview of Peel's broadcasting career and placing it in its cultural and social contexts. Peel comes alive for the reader, as do the key developments that kept him at the cutting edge - the changes in his tastes; the changes in his thinking. Just like a Peel show, Goodnight and Good Riddance is warm, informative and insightful, and wears its enthusiasm proudly.\u003cbr\u003e\n      Book Description      \u003cbr\u003e\nThe first major book on the most colossal tastemaker in British pop history since\u003cbr\u003e\nMargrave of the Marshes\u003cbr\u003e\n      About the Author      \u003cbr\u003e\nDavid Cavanagh was a feature writer for\u003cbr\u003e\nSelect and\u003cbr\u003e\nQ, and is the author of the acclaimed history of Creation Records\u003cbr\u003e\n My Magpie Eyes Are Hungry for the Prize.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780571327898\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.8 x 5.2 x 2.2 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50252484051248,"sku":"Trans_9780571327898","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/910YokJt1jL.jpg?v=1761638493","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/good-night-and-good-riddance-how-thirty-five-years-of-john-peel-helped-to-shape-modern-life","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
