BBC4 THURS 17TH JAN

TUNE IN...CHILL OUT

8.30PM         SLADE IN FLAME................................  The missing link between A Hard Day’s Night, Kes and This Is Spinal Tap resurfaces  with its cult reputation intact. The Oasis of the early ‘70s, glam-yob populists Slade deliver credible performances in Richard Loncraine’s surprisingly gritty 1974 docu-drama about a Midlands rock band set for stardom but torn apart by internal strife and music industry cynicism.

11.00PM      THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME............Led Zep live Madison Square 1973

Yeah there's some good stuff on BBC4 this week, they are discussing and showing clips and films from the 50's through to modern day British music.
I was watching Billy Fury and Lonnie Donegan on Monday and quite enjoyed it. I think I'm turning into my Dad!
It's the 60's tonight and the Gimme Shelter documentary is on at 1.00 am if anyone's a Stones fan.

An Underrated Classic.
