      Nice programme although no Rod Argent was insulting given the excellence of his band and performance.
       
      I would like to get the whole performance of Focus on DVD. The very short clip of Hocus Pocus was superb!
       
      No Steve Hackett I guess because of sound problems.
       
      No ZZ Top ..were they really that bad??!

      I'm going to have to check if there's any other repeats of this and that I have Sky Arts 3.
      Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

      ^LOL. If Snow Dog is half the man Greg Lake is, he is a big man indeed.
       
      Sounds like a great show, wish it'l  be online at some stage.

      Bigelf are mentioned in the Radio Times but not Hackett or Opeth I think. I'm recording it to watch later. My daughter doesn't ant to watch it.
