520    "A chronological history of 265 programmes presented by 
       John Peel between 1967 and 2003. It's the story of a 
       changing music scene, a changing radio landscape and a 
       changing Britain. the story of how a shy man who played 
       records for a living ended up having an impact as far-
       reaching as any rock group. A social history, a diary of a
       nation's changing culture, and an in-depth appraisal of 
       one of our greatest broadcasters, a man who can 
       legitimately be called the most influential figure in post
       -war British popular music. Without the support of John 
       Peel, it's unlikely that innumerable artists - from David 
       Bowie to Dizzee Rascal, Jethro Tull to Joy Division - 
       would have received national radio exposure. 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 ... [gives] 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."--Publisher's description.
