    40 years of rock in seven one hour programmes. Not to be missed I'd say.

    BBC to air Seven Ages Of Rock documentary series

    A new seven-part BBC 2 documentary series, airing each Saturday between 19 May and 30 June, will explore different eras of rock music through a "prism of a central wrap-around artist or group".

    The titles of Seven Ages Of Rock's hour-long episodes are:

    The Birth of Rock – tx Sat 19th May
    White Light, White Heat: Art Rock - tx Sat 26 May
    Blank Generation: Punk Rock - tx Sat 2 June
    Never Say Die: Heavy Metal - tx Sat June
    We Are The Champions: Stadium Rock – tx Sat 16 June
    Left Of The Dial: American Alternative Rock – tx Sat 23 June
    What The World Is Waiting For: British Indie Rock – tx Sat 30 June

    Featuring a combination of new and archive interviews with contributors such as Roger Waters, David Bowie, Bryan Ferry, Phil Collins, Debbie Harry, Ozzy Osbourne, Johnny Marr, Dave Grohl, Noel Gallagher, Damon Albarn and Alex Kaprano, we reckon it could even be worth staying in for on a Saturday night ...
    Apparently the first episode focuses on Hendrix and we'll hear Claptons reaction to seeing him play for the first time: "Well I'm off home to practice":D

    One on the 23rd June I'd be looking forward to. American alternative...sweet. Bit of stadium rock or heavy metal either though, its all good. thankfully I miss the last one.

    I will watch them all even though I hate Indie. I just love documentaries on music.
