Joy of the Single - BBC

Anyone watch this show?
Some great interviews and retrospectives. Got me thinking about my 45 collection which is shamefully boxed somewhere in the garage.

Seems Norman Cook AKA FatBoySlim still uses his ST. Booo!

yeah I saw that after all the F1 crashes and James Hunt stuff last night. I had a fair sized collection of vinyl in the 80's before everything went digital. Dont really miss those days but I agree we have lost somethng with downloads. I have all my music on a drive which isn't even plugged in, and what happens if the drive dies?

I thought the shows (singles and albums) were better than expected and I'm glad I caught them. I only ever tune in this TV on F1 or Top Gear day, so to actually watch TV is a rarity.

I watched a bit of the world richest single on BBC4 which was quite interesting that even the worlds biggest bands really only get their success from 1 or 2 really big singles.

I never trusted that Norman Cook now I know why....

Just think how good he'd been if he'd used a Amiga
