You can picture Freddie And The Dreamers listening to 'Tomorrow Never Knows' and thinking, ''OK, we're screwed.''

Welsh Megaman · 22-07-2016 08:48PM

Wasn't Jeremy Beadle one of the organisers of the Isle Of Wight Festival? :O

Give that man a hand

Danny not really bothering with even a contrived attempt at a narrative here.

The trouble with having the people telling anecdotes is that they aren't really any good at it.

Danny's own stories would be much better, his autobiographies are great.

I caught the drumstick at a Terrorvision gig, will the Beeb give me a call?

Trevor Bolder: ''Whaddysay?''

Skid X · 22-07-2016 09:09PM

"David? ... you didn't mean that, did you David? ... David?"

Welsh Megaman · 22-07-2016 09:11PM

Trevor: ''Can you believe that, Mick?''

Mick: ''Er...yeah...gottago.''

Welsh Megaman · 22-07-2016 09:12PM

I bet he actually got the Stylophone from Rolf Harris! :O

Stir It Up is the best song ever.

Or thereabouts...

I bet Marley spent some time behind the bikesheds

A beer towel tucked in her shorts for sweat clean-up...classy

This is all a bit silly though,

trying to cover every Pop tribal movement of Pop's most vibrant decade inside an hour by showing mostly mediocre memorabilia owned by random people who went to some of the gigs.

When is the Terrorvision programme on?

Did Neil S****a ever release a concept album?

You should go to the Antiques Roadshow to get that drumstick valued ... just for insurance purposes, of course!

Jaysus, Rick Wakeman and his ilk really led rock into a musical cul-de-sac.

Glad I gave that crap a miss. The Rick Wakeman concept album programme was actually good

he seems to have a good perspective on how w*nky it all looks in retrospect, and they fecking oughta, 1977 was the much needed rock dinosaur extinction event.

The only "Prog Rock" album that's ever been worth listening to:

I am a massive prog rock fan and have been for decades.theres no point in me listing my favourites because it's all a matter of taste,but to say dark side of the moon is the "only prog rock album worth listening to" is bewildering

Ridiculous comment. Not even Pink Floyd's best album imo.

Animals is an absolute classic.

Is that the same Richards documentary that is on Netflix?

No, its a different one although they probably overlap quite a bit

Netflix: Keith Richards: Under The Influence (2015) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4900018/
Academy Award–winning director Morgan Neville (Twenty Feet from Stardom) follows Keith Richards on the road as the legendary Rolling Stones guitarist records his first solo record in over two decades.
"I'm not getting old, I'm evolving," says Keith Richards in this intimate documentary, which follows him on the road during the creation of his first solo album in twenty-three years, Crosseyed Heart.

BBC: Keith Richards: The Origin Of The Species (2016) http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b07m8n2v
A Julien Temple-authored documentary essay film about Keith Richards's postwar childhood and adolescence in Dartford and London. Exploring the cultural undercurrents and transformative thinking which occurred in England between 1945 and 1962 and made possible the worldwide explosion of British rock music during the 60s, in which Keith played such a crucial role.

'You Can't Always Get What You Want'

Absolute classic

Skid X · 23-07-2016 08:57PM

I'm probably not watching it the way the director intended, but I enjoyed seeing young Barry Cryer pop up briefly in Keith Richards' BBC2 film.

Good stuff...I liked the way they recorded new live footage and animation, but in the old style of a 'British Pathe' newsreel.

Harry Palmr · 23-07-2016 09:16PM

Julian Temple being very Julian Temple, but an enjoyable ramble though a bit of pop culture history.
