Marvin Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 I watched one of the My Life As A Rolling Stone episodes on iPlayer, the Keith Richards one. Pretty vacuous and poorly made to be honest. Keith himself, I love listening to anyway, was great, but they didn't focus enough on Keith telling us about his life as a Stone. I'd like to hear from the man in his own way. Perhaps it's my age 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Mick’s was best as he seemed to be honest in his interview without much pretence. A close second was Charlie Watts, the ‘jazz drummer in the rock n roll band’, so different from the archetypal rock star, Charlie loved his drumming but didn’t care much for the fame and hysteria being a ‘Stone’ brought to him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickeyboro Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 I have yet to watch but i just wonder what there is left to know? As the producers get younger the awe increases…. I would like to see their contemporaries talk to them. Ask the awkward questions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leroydiamond Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Watched The Eagles from 1973 earlier. Love them or hate them, they were the mutts nuts when it came to nailing harmony vocals 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickeyboro Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Saw Toots before he died. Great character, though slick US musicians who backed him didn’t have a clue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve turned it off , the program after this , When Bob Marley came to Britain is worth watching, there’s some great footage on that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even turned my sub-woofer up to full but it was only marginally better. I’m now reliving my youth by watching Dogtown and the Z-Boys on Sky Documentaries but will take a look at your recommendation at 10pm. Cheers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched this the other day followed by I Dream of Wires, a very detailed documentary on synthesisers, particularly modular synthesisers. Two very good documentaries. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casapete Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 On BBC4 tonight (Friday 19th) there is some Stevie Wonder stuff. Starts at 22.40 with ‘Stevie at the BBC’, followed by the ace ‘A Night of Wonder’ at 22.40. Probably on iPlayer for a while too I would think. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is probably the biggest single musical hero of mine…those 70s albums were absolute perfection (apart from ‘…Plants’). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
