Dandelion Radio is an internet radio station founded in June 2006 with the aim of pursuing the musical legacy of the popular and influential BBC Radio 1 disk jockey John Peel. The station takes its name from the record label Dandelion Records founded and run by Peel between 1969 and 1972. In November 2006 Dandelion Radio was asked by Peel's former production team at BBC Radio 1 to take over the running of the annual Festive Fifty listeners' chart of that year's releases.〔("Reported in The Guardian newspaper 1 December 2006" )〕〔("Article on Dandelion Radio and Andrew Morrison in Portsmouth News" )〕〔(Article ) in The Guardian newspaper about John Peel, The Festive Fifty and Dandelion Radio 14 November 2008〕〔(Review of Dandelion Radio ) in the TV & Radio pages of The Guardian 26 November 2008〕 Radio 1 DJs Huw Stephens and Rob da Bank broadcast notice of the move to Dandelion Radio during their One Music shows.〔Huw Stephens 30 November 2006, 7 December 2006, 3 January 2007.
