Anyone hear this documentary on Radio 4 this morning? Really enjoyed it myself.
Nick Barraclough presented the show.

 Didn't know it was on.. I wonder if it's available on listen again.
Did they play much appropriate music to go with it?

Same reason that Ken Clark's Legends of Jazz was on Radio 4 later that day & why Russell Brand is on Radio 2. Every network wants to be something other than what it currently is.

I remember Radio 4 doing a documentary on Chuck Berry not so long back, which would have had a bigger audience on Radio 2 perhaps?
Two Stepper, what has happened to redneck chat and talk country? |

| Makes perfect sense when you explain it like that Ernst ! Totally off piste though.. I thoroughly enjoyed Alice's show last night about Stock Aitken & Waterman in his & Steve Levine's 'The Producers' strand. I always liked PWL's output, it was catchy, infectious, inoffensive, bloody good pop music in it's day and I reckon Rick Astley's 'Never goona give you up' will still get playted 30 years from now. |

That makes two of us - very interesting to hear the tracks being dissected. "The Producers" is one of the best documentary strands on R2 in recent years.
