Title: Rock'n' roll Britannia tonight 9pm
Post by: Big_Al on 17 May 2013, 17:24:58
Should be worth a look if your into the early days of British rock'n' roll like me .

Back to the days when you really  had to be able to sing to make a record  & really had to be able to  play an instrument   to be in a band . ::) ::)

Not like todays "electronically" adjusted so called  "stars "   JLS  & One Direction come to mind  :D :D :D

BBC Four 9pm :y

i watched it too, slightly disappointed as there wasn't quite enough music, but joe brown i thought had aged significantly since i saw him perform last !
