BBC Music and BBC Four have announced three new programmes which will air in the coming months: Old Grey Whistle Test Live: For One Night Only, Africa: A Journey Into Music and The 80s Pop Road Map.
Old Grey Whistle Test Live: For One Night Only, hosted by Bob Harris, is a live three-hour show with music, special guests and rare archive to mark 30 years since the legendary series was last broadcast. There will be music from Peter Frampton, Richard Thompson and Albert Lee - who all performed on the show. Bob will be speaking to them and other guests, including Dave Stewart, Joan Armatrading, Ian Anderson, Kiki Dee, Chris Difford and Danny Baker, plus singer Mollie Marriott, Pink Floyd animator Ian Emes and Mike Appleton who produced the original series.

Also on BBC Four, Africa: A Journey Into Music explores the music of Mali, Nigeria and South Africa with presenter Rita Ray; and The 80s Pop Road Map (working title) sees Midge Ure and Kim Appleby take to the road to reveal just how this was the most revolutionary musical decade in British pop history.

Cassian Harrison, Channel Editor, BBC Four, says: “In a world of infinite music choice, BBC Four is the home of music on the BBC. I’m delighted to be celebrating one of the innovators of the genre, Old Grey Whistle Test with this one-off special which is sure to reaffirm the series’ legacy.

"Rita Ray’s exploration through Mali, Nigeria and South Africa will bring insight and context to the incredible music from these countries. And Midge Ure and Kim Appleby’s journey round the UK will give a fresh and innovative look at the music from the seminal decade that was the 80s.”

Old Grey Whistle Test Live: For One Night Only
Broadcasting live, Old Grey Whistle Test Live: For One Night Only (9pm-midnight, Friday 23 February) is a celebration of the iconic music television show that aired on the BBC from 1971 to 1988. Presented by Bob Harris, who fronted the series from 1972-1978, and produced by BBC Studios, the show returns to its original home of Television Centre in White City in a recreation of the programme’s early incarnation for a glorious evening of live music performances from some of the show’s favourite musicians.

Bob will be talking to a host of studio guests, from back room staff to musicians who performed on the show and fans who grew up with it. Other former presenters - including Annie Nightingale, Richard Williams, David Hepworth and Andy Kershaw - will also feature, sharing stories of their time on the series. There will be incredible archive footage of some of the best-loved and rarest performances from its extraordinary back catalogue, and during the live programme there will be an online viewer vote for the performance the BBC Four audience would most like to see again.

Bob Harris says: “Old Grey Whistle Test was such a magical time. It produced so many firsts for music television, whilst forging friendships for me that have lasted ever since. I can’t wait to get back in the studio and relive those wonderful memories and introduce some great new performances.”

Old Grey Whistle Test saw the first UK performances from Bob Marley and the Wailers, Dire Straits, New York Dolls, Tom Petty and XTC, as well as classic performances from Blondie, David Bowie, Deep Purple, John Lennon, Led Zeppelin, Patti Smith, Queen, R.E.M., The Smiths and Talking Heads.

Caroline Wright, Editor, Entertainment Projects, BBC Studios says: “Old Grey Whistle Test was one of those unique shows that always felt like it was owned by its audience, consistently attracting the biggest and most enduring bands throughout its entire run and often introducing acts to British audiences for the first time. Drawing on the show’s unbelievable back catalogue of wonderful performances and guests, Old Grey Whistle Test Live: For One Night Only will celebrate this legendary series.”

In 2011, BBC Radio 2 celebrated four decades since the series was first broadcast with a 16 part series, Old Grey Whistle Test 40. It is now being broadcast again on Wednesdays (17 January - 2 May, 11pm-midnight). Presented by Bob Harris, each programme looks at one complete series of the original show, with archive recordings alongside both new interviews and exclusively recorded sessions with guests from the featured series. Contributors include Elton John, Stevie Nicks, Alice Cooper, Debbie Harry, Brian May, Joan Armatrading, Chris Rea, Jim Kerr and Paul Weller. Produced by The Whispering Bob Broadcasting Company.

Old Grey Whistle Test: For One Night Only is a BBC Studios production. The programme is executive produced by Caroline Wright. It was commissioned for BBC Four by Jan Younghusband, Head of Commissioning, Music Television, for Channel Editor Cassian Harrison.

The Mono stuff is great, hopefully you can find something for the 1970's, 80's and 90's. In time.

Was watching re-runs of The Old Grey Whistle test this morning, and saw Bonnie Raitt.
Beautiful voice, can play guitar, and I most definitely would.
Anything by her would be great. Or GGGGGRRRRaitt !!

THE WHO - Live At The Isle of Wight (1970)


"Filmmaker Murray Lerner's documentary Message to Love: The Isle of Wight Festival--The Movie took more than a quarter-century
to make it to theater screens. But when it finally did, Lerner's footage of the Who's incendiary performance at that open-air
show proved to be a real highlight. Lerner's complete coverage of the group's appearance, generally considered by true
believers to be among their greatest shows, can be seen in this excellent concert film. A full year after the band's ragged
concert at Woodstock (at which guitarist Pete Townshend, according to legend, was suffering the ill effects of a drug-spiked
drink), the Who brought their potent act to the troubled Isle of Wight fest, making rock & roll history with a magnificent
noise. Except for an allusion or two by singer Roger Daltrey, there's no mention in the film that the band was between their
lengthy tour in support of Tommy and the recording of an album they would eventually scrap (substituting it with the epochal
Who's Next). This concert contains three then-new tunes from the aborted project (and they're so awful you'll instantly
understand why it was dropped), but much more important is the band's rendering of an abridged but thrilling Tommy and
full-blooded shouts of some old warhorses: "Shakin' All Over," "I Can't Explain," and "Magic Bus." Comic relief is provided
by the late Keith Moon, whose exchanged witticisms with Townshend grow lengthy enough at one point to demand an actual,
discrete, click-to scene of their own on the DVD release. Otherwise, as far as the DVD goes, there are no other goodies; this
great concert speaks for itself.
review by Tom Keogh-www.amazon.com"

In 1970, 600,000 people came to the Isle of Wight to attend a music festival. At 2 A.M., August 30th, The Who appeared and
gave one of the most memorable performances of their career.
LISTENING TO YOU: THE WHO AT THE ISLE OF WIGHT captures the only complete live performance of The Who's legendary rock opera
"Tommy" ever recorded. It is also one of the last times the band played this classic album in its entirety on stage.

p.s. do Merlinus: dando seguimento às lendárias performances no Festival da Ilha de Wight em 1970, segue uma Banda considerada
por todos como um dos Ícones de todos os tempos, The Who.
