I just heard on Radio 1 that John Peel has died from a massive heart attack while on holiday with his wife in Peru.
For those who don't know, John Peel was Radio 1's most long-serving DJ - there are few people alive who know more about music than him.
He always championed new music and launched the careers of some of Britain's greatest bands.
He'll be missedGetting to the other side
