jimi hendrix: road to woodstock doc. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b03p7p6v
seen and heard his performance before (I wasn't actually there ;-) ) , but really impressed me this time.
likewise the first two parts of the 'american soul' doc. series, also on the i-player (watch 'em while you can, before your chummy fellow country-men crowdfund a totalitarian fascist regime. Or a new one.). Excellent.
likewise 2 parts of the " 'black' music legends of the 1980 "s. Lionel Richtea, which was as expected (you gotta love the commodores), and janet jackson - about whom I knew next to nothing, and certainly not that she'd been such a huge star.
Quite liked some of her music, although one of said hits was instructive in terms of cultural / musical trends, as the joyous sly stone track from which its foundational sample was taken was shoe-horned into something very much more processed and lacking in most of the original's virtues.
