This Week's Music for Grown-Ups on Radio/TV

 

Your exclusive listening/watching guide… thanks to compiler Mike Ollier:


Radio For Grown-Ups

Weds BBC2 23.00 ~ 23.30
* Earth, Wind for Hire (3/4)
Funnyman Bill Bailey continues with his sardonic look at tribute bands in this four-parter.

Thurs BBCR2 22.00 ~ 23.00
* Seven More Days That Rocked The World: Dixie Chicks vs George Bush (3/7)
The Beeb are stretching it a bit now, another documentary season wasted. I'm actually sick of hearing about this incident (there's a DVD out at the mo). Real rebels like Steve Earle have the CIA watching them.

Fri BBCR6 21.00 ~ 22.00
* Theme Time Radio Hour with Bob Dylan: Heart
Bob shows how hip he is by digging out The 101ers (early Strummer), Billie Holiday and Solomon Burke

Fri BBCR3 22.30 ~ 23.30
* Jazz Library
Benny Goodman

Fri BBCR3 23.30 ~ 01.00
* Jazz On Three
Chick Corea and Gary Burton live from the Barbican


TV For Grown-Ups

Still not a lot to report, summer's almost over (summer? What summer?) and so there may be some light in the tunnel… until then there's the best drama EVER, HBO's The Sopranos (started last night, repeated Tuesday night, on E4) for the next 9 weeks… great music on the soundtrack. Opening scenes feature the brilliant Alabama 3's "Woke Up This Morning"

Thurs BBC4 21.00 ~ 22.30
* Mercury Music Prize 2007
The ubiquitous Ms Winehouse vies for the top prize of twenty grand. If she wins I wonder what she'll spend it on?

Thurs BBC2 21.30 ~ 22.00
* Saxondale
Tommy keeps rockin' on.
