Seems to be a 250th episode special on in 40 mins on beeb2. 90 mins long no less!!
I am the million man.
Opened with the man in black and now the radioheads.
This could be a superb 90 mins (for those of us who haven't seen this special already)

This is my first (and, hopefully last) encounter with Radiohead - boy are they crap.Originally Posted by Cowboy
YouTube them good sir, they've influenced countless current acts.
Actually might I suggest you treat yourself to a free copy of their album 'in rainbows' online. They asked people what they thought was fair (nothing) you might be surprised
I am the million man.
Noted.
Perish the thought, but Tom Jones on BBC 4 is beginning to tempt me. And I'm not a great Tom Jones fan!
Those legs will banish all thoughts of Welsh sideburns!

That was superb. The Jools and Billy preston clip was sublime.
When things go wrong, blame McGahan
Enjoyed it immensely apart from Sir Paul at the end.
Cannot stand him. Mind you I saw the decline in his voice over the last 13 years listening to the recording then (1999) in comparison to his olympics performance. I suppose he is 70 though.

Really enjoyed the Jools special - some great performances
I realised I was dyslexic when I went to a toga party dressed as a goat
They are a little crap now.... but check this song out.... anyone that can create this, is (are..??) ok in my mind....
He was as lame as a duck. Not the metaphorical lame duck either, but a real duck that was actually lame. Maybe from stepping on a land mine or something.
I'll see that ILC and I'll raise it with this personal favourite!

Damn straight Leaky Boots!!
took 4 years after hail to the thief but it appears (to me anyway) to be their most focused and concise album ever. The pacing is excellent, it opens at a gallop and maintains it throughout.
Yorke was in a very very rich vein of form at the time though, the eraser had been released the year before and that thing is a masterpiece. Harrowdown Hill is one of the best songs I've ever heard and tragic at the same time. Old Dog you may be interested in the lyrics, Thom Yorke has stated on a number of occasions its about former weapons expert David Kelly
Thom Yorke from wikipedia: "The government and the Ministry of Defence... were directly responsible for outing him and that put him in a position of unbearable pressure that he couldn't deal with, and they knew they were doing it and what it would do to him... I've been feeling really uncomfortable about that song lately, because it was a personal tragedy, and Dr. Kelly has a family who are still grieving. But I also felt that not to write it would perhaps have been worse." In another interview, Yorke said that "Harrowdown Hill" is "the most angry song I've ever written in my life. I'm not gonna get into the background to it, the way I see it... And it's not for me or for any of us to dig any of this up. So it's a bit of an uncomfortable thing." Yorke also notes that "'Harrowdown Hill' was kicking around during Hail to the Thief, but there was no way that was going to work with the band.".

Later just started on BBC2. Beach boys were just on, with Muse on now & PIL later.
Later ... on BBC4 is doing a Guitar Heroes compilation. Page & Plant, RHCP, Buddy Guy, Jeff Beck etc. Started maybe 10 minutes ago.
Never mind perception because it isn’t real. It’s only what people think. Go out and make them think something else.

Taz-Where did you get that information as I have seen nowhere that he(Penney) was ruled out?

Editor-- This article originally said Rob Penney had missed out on the Munster coaching job. That information was incorrect.
It might even have been better than that!! The (partial) Squeeze gig from '82 that was on beforehand was great too.
I look forward to seeing what BBC4 have to offer every Friday. It's always music from circa 9pm.

Having managed to break a glass into hundreds of tiny fragments which had to be swept from underneath the sofa, the chair, the computer, the coffee table and the radiator - after a fall of about a foot - I'm finally back to watching this again! Santana's performance was sublime, loved the Hendrix cover.

Indeed it is. Love the eclectic nature of it. Managed to convince my 14 year old daughter to sit through it with me tonight and she's hooked.
That's my good deed and one of the resolutions taken care of!!!
Happy New Year folks.
RD, ditto with my 14 Year Old Son. Roland Gift was outstanding & Jake Bugg was pretty good. Happy NY.
