    How did Syd actually make his way inside the Abbey Road studios and wander around without anybody noticing him or recognising him?? :confused:

    The big BBC Four feature this Friday night is

    Elvis: That's Alright Mama 60 Years On

    but tucked away on Film4 that night is at 23.05

    Mistaken for Strangers - the premiere of Tom Berninger film about his big brother Matt’s band, The National.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,722 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    Last night's Mick Ronson documentary on BBC Radio 2 was excellent - highly recommended.

    Nice one, I was one of a select few who saw The National at Oxegen '11 while the plebs went off to watch Beyonce

    'Guth' is being repeated, Thursdays at 10.15pm on TG4. It's "The story of popular music and how the families of Irish emigrants changed the genre"

    It starts off with Bing Crosby, then features John Lydon, Stephen Morrissey and Johnny Maher from The Smiths, Dusty Springfield, John Lennon and Noel and Liam Gallagher of Oasis. John Lydon's show is very good, I missed most of the others.

    Boo-urns. This is a weak week for BBC music, everything is swamped by the Commonwealth Games.

    Ah well, there's always Youtube. Anyone got a recommendation for Youtube Music Doc? - I might give these two a rewatch soon, lovely stuff

    Not beebrock really, but if you want a bit on the history and development of music, youtube Howard Goodall's Story of Music. Might not be of interest to those of you that are in the mood for rockin.

    Of definite interest is his one about Lennon & Macca's songwriting. It should be there in it's entirety. Think i'll give it a go later (again).

    Edit: Howard Goodall's 20th Century Greats - Lennon & McCartney
