  • She took JP took him to his first ever concert, which featured the Obernkirchen Children's Choir, in 1954 and would put up many musicians invited by Peel, including the Misunderstood, at her home in Notting Hill, London. He would also often spend the night there when he was working late on his BBC Radio One shows. In the early years of Peel's BBC career she showed a curiosity about the hippy culture which Peel advocated, writing him a letter on the subject which he quoted in one of his 1968 Perfumed Garden columns for International Times, before revealing that "The writer of the second letter is in her mid-fifties. She's never had to work, comes from a good family in the North.....She likes gardening, Leonard Cohen, the Pink Floyd (she really does).......She's my mother". [1] Harriet Ravenscroft also wrote a letter to Oz magazine, praising the crowd behaviour at the 1969 Rolling Stones concert in Hyde Park [ref]. Although she didn't follow up this interest in youth culture, she kept up a close relationship with John and Sheila and was often mentioned in Peel shows (see below).
