John Peel - A legend. This is his festive 50 from the year 2000, a summary of his all time favorite tracks to date from his festive 50s.
A few tracks here have been substituted or left out because they are unavailable:
13) Capt Beefheart & His Magic Band - ‘Big Eyed Beans from Venus)
24) The Fall - ‘How I wrote ‘Elastic Man” - Replaced
25) Wedding Present - ‘My Favorite Dress’ - Replaced
27) My Bloody Valentine - ‘You made me realise’ - replaced
31) Belle & Sebastian - ‘Lazy line painter Jane’ - replaced
45) The beatles - I am the Walrus
49) Culture - ‘Lion Rock’
Although heavily biased towards the heavy crunchy guitar sound pioneered by Joy Division, this list gives you a small glipse into the mans mojo…… Hope you enjoy this list, I’m hoping to get all the individual lists from the original festival 50s from 1977 until his untimely death.

I have put together all the Festive 50’s from 1976 until 1990 including this and the 1982 all time festive 50. Another user has done all the ones for the 1990’s.
Have a look at my site and search for Festive 50.
