Description
Tom Ravenscroft returns with a second series of Peel Acres. Each week, he welcomes a different music lover to the home of his late father, former BBC Radio DJ John Peel, and his legendary record collection. Tom's guests lend a hand (and two ears) in making sense of this vast music archive, which is comprised of more than 120,000 albums, 12 inches and seven inches, collected over a lifetime and meticulously catalogued. This episode sees Jarvis Cocker return to the house, which he first visited with Pulp in 1995, as they released their Mercury Music Prize-winning album Different Class. Presenter: Tom Ravenscroft Producers: Paul Sheehan and Becca Bryers
