It was pretty poor. Liked the show on Mexico city when he interviewed the female journalist. Thinking back on what I've seen the Scottish one is probably one of the least memorable. Subject matter or expectations too high. Had too much of that English ponce for a start. Link to comment

It also had Janey Godley on it, that woman's voice goes right through me. If anything, she even amped up her accent. There are so many good episodes. The ones where there is a wee bit of danger like, Beirut etc are the best. Link to comment
alscotoz Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Forgot about godley. Shows how unmemorable it was. Link to comment

Could easily have been twice the length though as it fair motored through some key periods. Still got a brilliant voice which is an absolute miracle. Link to comment

Wouldve liked more about The Byrds and CSNY could have a 3hr doc just about them. He was/is a tricky customer but what a talent. Link to comment

Surprised he could stand up. I read the Johnny Rogan books about the Byrds. Requiem for the timeless. Hefty books mind you, about 1300 pages each. Great read though. Although once Clark and Crosby leave, my interest in the Byrds fades a fair bit. Read a good csny book recently, by David Browne. Decent. Haven't read the Peter Doggett one yet. Link to comment

BrianFaePerth Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 White Boy Doco about White Boy Rick who was run by the feds as a kid and told to get involved in the black drug gangs in Detroit. He did so, and every corrupt politician (which was basically all of them, and on a completely unrelated note they were all athletic) made sure he was arrested and the key thrown away. Link to comment

Redforever86 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 It’s been on UK Netflix for awhile. Maybe mentioned here before? Worth a gander. Watched another doc BBC4 called United Skates. About roller rinks in the USA closing down and their links to black culture. Something I admittedly had nae fucking idea about. Link to comment
