Seven Ages of Rock is a BBC Two series, co-produced by BBC Worldwide and VH1 Classic in 2007 about the history of rock and indie music.
This is programme 7: What the World Is Waiting For. Part 1.
British indie? this is a great episode, but still too mainstream to really understand "indie" music in the 80s. I would have liked for the show to have talked about the labels, and the movements they supported such as goth, shoegaze, mod revival, punk revival, c86, twee, greebo, britpop, etc... to understand indie music in the 80s and 90s. Unfortunately the show did a poor job of it.
But dont let my opinon be the determining factor. Please share your comments on the Seven Ages of Rock.
