so a DJ ain't an artist??? big can of worms opening for me on that one,
my major influences after Peel ( and in last 2 decades) are Martin Hannett, Paul Oakenfold, William Orbit, Deep Dish, thievery corporation all for their production talents and keeping me interested in music even after almost 40 years. prior to that the pistols, ramones and clash for encouraging kids to pick up guitars and play them, me included, before that as in my previous posts, velvets and new york dolls. i can honestly say the beatles, john lennon and bob dylan had little impact on me bowie yeah, young americans opened my ears to more souly stuff which prior to that i wouldn't have listened to and Low/heroes was the beginning of a spell of me searching for good german stuff like neu or la dusseldorf.
