dmccombe7 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Too many Reality, cooking or quiz shows on these days. Some decent live music shows would be great Wouldn't mind shows with some of the older band live clips like a re-run of even OGWT at its peak.

martthebass Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I think part of the reason I've lost touch with 'today's music' is that I see so little live content (or miming to stuff a la TOTP) on TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barking Spiders Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Not sure showing summat along the lines of OGWT, TOTP, Tube, Word etc would cut it these days. They were of their time. I'm sure some TV production companies have already looked into whether there's a market for music TV and have concluded the music listening market is too fragmented and niche to be commercially viable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that music always had lots of genres and sub-genres and part of the fun was making magazine programmes that gave a cross section. The fun of watching Echo and the Bunnymen followed by Black Lace on TOTP in the 80s......so sad we'll never see its like again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out the arrangements and of course the playing...(And a mention for his entertaining, 'out there' conducting) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then there's always Radio 1's Live Lounge - this particular link featuring a young lady from my home town who is turning into the biggest sensation since Slade 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
