Peel also dedicated a record to Dexter on his 19 July 1967 show, where he called him 'a very good person'. Soon after Radio London closed down, Peel himself did a DJ night at Tiles, but as he mentioned in his International Times column[ref], it was not a success and the club closed soon afterwards. In an interview conducted in February 1998, Dexter mentioned his interaction with Peel at Middle Earth: [1] Jeff Dexter did make a few appearances as holiday cover for other DJs in the early days of Radio 1's Sounds of the Seventies, but was unable to repeat his live DJ success on the radio.
