Just put the six hour prog on, it'll be background music for me until bedtime hopefully.
The programme before probably shoulda had more input from Jules and although it was an enjoyable watch and listen, seeing footage from back in the day and reminders of tunes etc, plus a few bits of equipment I found interesting, it was poorly put together, very fragmented and if anyone with no real clubbing knowledge or experience watched it, they probably just think it was all drugs motivated. And despite all the drugs taken it was in fact all about dancing and music.
It jumped from one era to another and then back again, with contradicting statements about very big influences on the scene. I thought.
But as programmes like this are rare, it was an enjoyable program.
Well written for the presenter, and well presented in that sense, but not entirely factual.
What was clear though, was the passion of the old skoolers, the way it was for the party, not for the money.
As I wrote all that, grandmaster flashes voice is getting on my tits, but I'm off to look through some tubs of photos and I think the mixing will keep me company, shame he won't shut up, it's worse than Jules' jingles .... Jeeez
