Genesis - VH-1 Behind the Music

Thanks for posting the "Nursery Cryme" documentary. It would be a cryme for any Genesis fan to miss it. Why do you say "finally"?

I'm watching a Partridge Family documentary at the moment, which is about as far from Prog-Rock as you can possibly get.

I used to watch the Partridge Family on television and went to college with Brian Forster (one of two who played Christopher on drums). The music was pure bubble-gum but there was true talent.

In that case, you may be interested to know I just posted The Partridge Family documentary in the General Music Discussion forum.

I've only been around here for six weeks, but I'm surprised no one's posted any Prog-Rock documentaries before I arrived on the scene.

my mini documentary on Triumvirat I removed as they are not British; sorry, I thought the thread was for prog documentaries in general

It seems to me is worth checking them out. Thanks you for posting this.

I'm looking forward to watching all of those Genesis mini-documentaries again on how each album was made. I'll go right back to the beginning and watch the album docs in sequence. I just realised that's Phil Collins in your avatar photo, back in the days when he used to have a full head of hair. I don't know who that is standing next to him though.

That would be Bill Bruford.

Thank you for supporting independently produced music

Hi,

Personally, I would like to see more respect for the MUSIC itself, than the "stars". It's nice to see Triumvirat listed, but it's like ... there is no other music out there?

I, honestly, do not need any more thoughts or documentaries on YES, GENESIS and ELP ... or even KING CRIMSON .... for crying out loud ... are we that insane that we can only appreciate a handful of bands and ignore the rest?

I would be more interested in one of these for PFM, BANCO, PETER HAMMILL/VDGG, than I would in any of these listed and even Tony V talking about Bowie ... please ... enough!

Heck, a VH-1 type of thing about France, would be awesome. One about Spain would be just as good ... but we have this funny idea that they are not good because they are copies (good luck on that one!!!), and did not sell a million copies of an album ... the injustice this does to the music itself, is simply the worst horror movie ever! And even more HECK ... the thing in GERMANY was not just about music ... the "krautrock" thing in there was also about film, theater, literature, but getting educated is not a part of PA's (and the fan's) principles?

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Moshkito's anti English bias is beginning to get on my threepenny bits!
