John Peel dead at 65

I am completely stunned... John Peel died today, Oct 26, 2004. This man was one of the most influential figures in music for the past 40 years, and helped bring recognition to many of the bands and artists that shaped my own and many others lives. This is a terrible loss, he was truly an icon of our times.
