| - John Peel was a supporter of the Bonzo Dog Band, an act that was featured extensively during his show, with seven sessions and album plays that would endure until the 2000s. Peel's appreciation of Monty Python and the fact that he was in good terms with Innes, led to the singer being booked for three sessions during the 70s. John Peel and Innes remained friends throughout the DJ's life. On 07 April 1981 Peel recounted of a charity gig he made the previous night with him and John Gorman. Unfortunately, it didn't go well, with the DJ being unnoticed by virtually everyone, including the people who had organized the event. On 11 July 2002, Peel phoned up Innes at home because he wanted to play a Bonzo Dog Band track for which he didn't recall the name ("Slush").
