This has the makings of a high quality series, tracing the history of recording. Part 1 is about the recording artist and shows interviews and examples of great producers like George Martin and Phil Spector and what they brought to their artists, contrasting with Joni Mitchell and the plethora of modern artists who effectively 'home studio' their music without a producer. Not all of it is to my taste (certainly not the rap), but this series takes the time to explain it and the effect of the music at the time. I'm looking forward to the rest of the 8-parter.

One I'll have to catch if it comes to Freeview.
Helps I have to much TV to watch anyway and the music listening is rather important

I've set it up to record the series.
I'm just hoping that there isn't a clash with Glasto over the weekend .....

Part 2 (Painting with Sound) is even better than the first one, where the studio became the place to create sounds that could not easily be performed. Lust-tastic for lovers of big tape machines and cutting lathes!

I'll have to look this up when I've got a little more time and the football is over.

One more thing: the sound quality of this broadcast (through the Caiman-II) is outstanding. You can really appreciate what they are saying about the mixes and the sound effects. The description and clips of how Tomorrow Never Knows from Revolver was built up with all the sound effects is marvellous.
