The Biggest Weekend: Florence and the Machine
Fortunately nearly at the end of these shows. After a short blast from Camila Cabello, there's a long run from the tiresome Florence Welch and her antics, headlining in Swansea. She's got a new album out, and is a critical darling. Zzz

Come Together - The Rise of the Festival
Enjoyable lengthy run through from the early days of the Newport Folk and Jazz Festivals, through events at Isle of Wight and Woodstock, and then on to Knebworth, Bath, and eventually Glastonbury. The erection of a £1m fence at the latter marked the modern era, and there was a mention for latterday American events like Coachella. Good stuff.

The Biggest Weekend: Liam Gallagher
Saturday night headliner in Coventry, he spent his between-song banter on football, but he mixed his own songs with a good batch of Oasis ones, particularly from this 1st album. Seemed in good mood, even if the weather perhaps let things down.

Belladrum 2017 - Cridhe Tartan - C Macleod
Another brief acoustic burst with the track Kicks In.

Eurythmics: Reminisce! 1981-1989
Both Dave Stewart and Annie Lennox told anecdotes inbetween their videos, from Michael Kamen doing orchestrations on Here Comes The Rain Again, to Stevie Wonder playing harmonica on There Must Be An Angel (Playing With My Heart) or how Clive Davis helped them get Aretha Franklin for Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves.

Belladrum 2017 - Cridhe Tartan - Louis Berry
He's Scottish, and he has a good handful of pop hits.

Who Do You Think You Are? - Liv Tyler
The actress was born a fortnight before me, and already knew her father (Steve, from Aerosmith) was connected to the Tallaricos, who are musical, but she also found a link to a mixed-race drummer-turned-soldier from the American Civil War who survived battles at Antietam and Gettysburg, to form a large family.

Us Festival 1982: The "Us" Generation
How a very rich man, Steve Wozniak of Apple, decided to hold a latter-day Woodstock, spent $millions to make the right site and book 3 days of great and not-so-great bands like Fleetwood Mac, the Police, the B-52's, and, er, Oingo Boingo. Those interviewed for this doc were happy to credit this as the antecedent for current efforts like Coachella etc, being professional and pleasant for those in attendance. 

Isle of Wight Festival: 20 Greatest Moments
Rather than a rundown, just a chronological chance to show a selection of great performances, from REM and Coldplay through Paul McCartney and Tom Petty up to Queen and the Who, partly as a curtain raiser to this weekend's festivity. What became funny was to wonder what was lacking from years like 2009, 2011 and 2013 which featured no clips.

Big Narstie's Mixtape
Unsurprisingly, he played tribute to other urban acts from Skepta to Craig David to Dizzee Rascal, as well as some Americans like Cardi B and Post Malone.

The Biggest Weekend: Nigel Kennedy
The last of these shows was from Coventry, and began with tracks from Eliza Carthy, Go Go Penguin, Angelique Kidjo and Milos (Kidjo was also interviewed about her new album which works with old Talking Heads tracks). Then Nigel Kennedy and friends belted through some Vivaldi, before bringing out special guest Level 42's Mark King for some Hendrix. Kennedy gets flak for his accent and attitude, but he really is a great musician.

Kylie at 50 - Especially For You
A lengthy tribute to the Aussie actress and her 30 years in the pop biz, from early years with PWL, tricky maturing experiments in the 90s, and finally hitting it big in 2000-1. She's a gay icon, a fashion icon, and supposedly has a scientifically calculated perfect bottom.

Larry King Now: PJ Morton
He's the keyboard player with Maroon 5 and has been since 2010. He's also a producer, a musical director for Solange, and has his own solo career and label. He was from New Orleans. He was Grammy-nominated but lost to Bruno Mars. He felt Kendrick Lamar was more R&B than Mars, and would like to work with him. He was star-struck by Paul McCartney. Now lives in New Orleans again, having been in Los Angeles.

Jax Jones' Mixtape
Another compilation that ran the gamut from Duke Dumont to Tinie Tempah, to Coldplay. He has much respect for MNEK, who he often works with.

Belladrum 2017 - Cridhe Tartan - I See Rivers
A female trio, apparently, doing an acoustic track called Ocean. OK.

Belladrum 2017 - Cridhe Tartan - Deaf Havana
A band I've heard of, for once here, they had a shorter than some set which was still good stuff.

Nicky Horse Presents, with Mary Chapin Carpenter
The New Jersey legend has a new album called Sometimes Just The Sky, which seems to be a project reimagining some tracks from her career. She sang some of the tracks, and talked about politics.

Martin Garrix's Mixtape
A somewhat predictable chance to look at his many hits, and collaborators, from Usher to Bebe Rexha. He co-wrote Avicii's best hit Waiting For Love.

Isle of Wight Festival: Feeder
As with other editions, a chat with Tom & Serge from Kasabian was considered a sensible prelude to the all-too-short set from the 25 year veteran Welsh pop-rockers.

Buena Vista Social Club
Legendary 1999 film about the Cuban band, with Ry Cooder as musical director and producer, but the band members themselves were rightly the stars, as they related their stories, and performed on stage in places like Amsterdam and New York.

Isle of Wight Festival: Soul II Soul
They were celebrating their 30th anniversary, and their chart relevance ended at least 25 years ago. But hard to deny the power of songs like Back To Life or Keep On Movin'.

Stretch and Bobbito - Radio That Changed Lives
How two guys in New York started their own late-night, 4 hour radio show, which helped launch the hip-hop boom in the 1990s, and was commemorated with fondness by many of those who were there, and who got their leg up into the business via this show.

The Biggest Weekend: Nigel Kennedy Plays Bach & Gershwin
More from the festival from last month, as Nigel and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, plus his own band, did a couple of Bach pieces, before they did a few Gershwin numbers. Nige even played piano for a change at one point. He encored on a piece by Stephane Grappelli, whom he had the good fortune to play with when he was much younger.

Isle of Wight Festival: Travis
Scottish pop-rockers kept it simple, singer Fran bantered about the World Cup and the worries of the world, but the music tended to stick to a familiar mould.

Unsung Heroines - The Lost World of Female Composers
Danielle de Niese told the tales of half a dozen lost talents, from Francesca Caccini to Florence Price and Ethel Smyth. Many of their symphonies and other works survive, but are usually overlooked in favour of male counterparts, such is the classical music world.

Belladrum 2017 - Cridhe Tartan - Vukovi
Another short acoustic blast, here with La Di Da.

Isle of Wight Festival: Sigrid
I wasn't expecting this to last long, but she did nearly the whole hour. Mind, I was surprised when she finished with Strangers.

Hip-Hop Evolution
A decent 4-part effort from Sam Dunn, who did an 11-part series on Metal's Evolution previously. Here were interviews with the 1970s guys who developed the sound, the 1980s guys who put it on record (no mention of sampling credits, oddly), the 1990s guys who took it further, and how the guys in LA created a different edge to the originators in NY.

Stefflon Don's Mixtape
She's got a few hits under her belt, and kind words for Rihanna, Cardi B, Bebe Rexha, Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé.

Belladrum 2017 - Cridhe Tartan - Tamzene
Never heard of her, she just did Isobel, acoustically.

Isle of Wight Festival: Liam Gallagher
He did a good few Oasis numbers, and his own solo ones, then got a bit shirty at having to give way to Depeche Mode.

noisey: Bay Area
How the hip-hop community in a corner of California is at risk because rich tech companies want the real estate for their employees, and it's convenient if the police harass (or worse) resident black families and drive them out. Tupac Shakur was from the area, whilst G-Eazy still is, and E-40 and Nef the Pharoah are other somewhat lesser names. Zach even witnessed police harassment. He also spoke to Philthy Rich and Mistah FAB, who had differing views on the way forward. Arguably one of the more amusing contributors was G-Eazy's mother Suzanne.

John Bishop - In Conversation with... Professor Green
The young Brit rapper turned documentary maker has a sad backstory to tell, but he has risen from a background to score #1 hits and inspire others.

Sommernachtskonzert
The annual fun at the Schonbrunn Palace, with the Vienna Philharmonic conducted by Val Gergiev through a pro-Italian themed evening, with guest soprano Anna Netrebko helping out at times. Some famous works from Verdi and Puccini rubbed shoulders with others from Mascagni and Tchaikowsky.

The Best of Electric Dreams 2017
Curious short compilation with Nicky Horne talking to Thomas Dolby, Clark Datchler, Frida Sundemo and Mike Score of A Flock of Seagulls, plus performance footage of each of those acts.

Lauryn Hill - Live in Lagos
Curious concert with the former Fugee frontwoman trying to enliven a room of people sat around tables as she ran through her own material, a few Fugees classics, and some Bob Marley covers too.

Top of the Pops - The Story of 1986
Mick Hucknall, Paul Heaton, Sinitta, Billy Ocean, the Rev Richard Coles and others happily recounted their successes of the year, whilst Pete Waterman complained a lot, and the DJ presenters all complained that the show featured acts they either didn't like or didn't get. Hmm. Whilst Smash Hits and NME journos put their 2p in for what it was worth.

Isle of Wight Festival 2018 - Manic Street Preachers
A good lengthy set with some from their latest album, which seems to have been more of a success than usual, and many from their early days, and their peak period.

Top of the Pops - 1986 Big Hits
Some degree of complementing the other prog, with Five Star, the Bangles and Kim Wilde turning up here, but no Pet Shop Boys. I get they might get more from 1987 or 1988, but not even West End Girls? For shame, lads!

First Night of the Proms 2018
Well, here we go again for the next 2 months. This show started with a tribute to newly-deceased Oliver Knussen, then pieces by Vaughn Williams, Holst (the entire Planets Suite) and finally a premiere from Anna Meredith of "Five Telegrams", which connects to the centenary of the end of WW1.

Gary Barlow - Live at Eden
A recent gig, presumably, with many Take That songs, and a few from his own career.

When Cheryl Met Liam
A celebritised biog of the Girls Aloud and One Direction members whose relationship has just ended. Cheryl provided more material because she is older and busier.

Belladrum 2017 - Cridhe Tartan - Lucy May
Probably the last of these, an acoustic turn of her song Whirlwind.

Secret Knowledge: Stradivarius and Me
Clemency Burton-Hill tells the tale of Antonio Stradivari, whose 17th century violin-making set a standard which has never quite been matched, and who kept his process a secret. There was a 2013 exhibition of some of his violins at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford which was the backdrop to this prog.

BBC Young Musician at 40, at the Proms 2018
Clem again presented here with a busy programme from works by Reich, Saint-Saens, Ravel and Mussorgsky offered opportunities to show off the talents of many previous winners, from Nicola Benedetti and Natalie Klein, to Sheku Kanneh-Mason and current winner Lauren Zhang.

Head
The Monkees' film opus from 50 years ago, which fits in half a dozen songs, some to special sequences, some which work better than others.

Video Killed The Radio Star: Annie Lennox
Although a couple of her Eurythmics videos were discussed (mainly the gender antics of Who's That Girl?) but mostly it covered her work with Sophie Muller on the Diva singles like Little Bird (with Annie met by past images), Why (the artistry of a woman looking in her own mirror) and Walking On Broken Glass (perhaps most famous for including Hugh Laurie and John Malkovich).

BBC Proms 2018: Jacob Collier and Friends
Collier seems to be a bright young thing and an insufferable prick at the same time. He brought on guests to help him, he threw in covers like As and Blackbird and Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic, and it just felt like 2 hours I was never getting back.

Belladrum 2017 - Cridhe Tartan - Benjamin Francis Leftwich
Unsure if this was a repeat it was that unmemorable. He did an acoustic track called Tilikun.

BBC Proms 2018: Schumann and Boulanger
Clemency Burton-Hall's turn to present, as Thomas Sondergaard conducts the BBC National Orchestra of Wales through pieces by Boulanger, Mendelssohn, Liszt, Owen and Schumann. Impressive stuff.

1968: A Year of War, Turmoil and Beyond
A reflection of the times 50 years back in films, music and politics. Tracks singled out for special mention included:
Walk Away, Renee - The Four Tops
Mighty Quinn - Manfred Mann
Hello, I Love You - The Doors
Rain and Tears - Aphrodite's Child
I Heard It Through The Grapevine - Marvin Gaye
Light My Fire - Jose Feliciano
All Along The Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix Experience
Albatross - Fleetwood Mac
For Once In My Life - Stevie Wonder

noisey: Paris
In 2016, with the aftermath of the Bataclan and Charlie Hebdo tragedies, Zach tries to fathom out the riddle of French hip-hop from acts stuck in poor districts of the city, facing police antipathy and harassment, the rise of the Front National, and so on.

BBC Proms 2018: English Elegy
A loose connection of pieces from Hubert Parry, Gustav Holst and Ralph Vaughn Williams, with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in full effect. Odd to learn that two of the pieces were getting their debut performances at the Proms.

Festival Express
Amusing 2003 doc about a week-long train trip across Canada, taking in gigs at Toronto, Winnipeg and Calgary (with a booze stop at Saskatoon), in which acts like the Band, Buddy Guy, Delaney & Bonnie, Janis Joplin, the Grateful Dead, Sha Na Na and more did gigs and jammed the train trip away. Wouldn't you know, the downside was Joe Public moaning at paying $14 to see the gigs and expecting to get in free. Those interviewed spoke fondly more of the train jams, though promote Ken Walker was rueful about the financial disaster it was.

BBC Proms 2018: Pioneers of Sound - The Legacy of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop
An interesting effort with the London Contemporary Orchestra paying tributes to Delia Derbyshire and Daphne Oram among others.

Reginald D Hunter's Songs of the Border
Another well-compiled effort to follow his Songs of the South series from a while back. Here he visited places in Texas, Mexico, Arizona and finally California, meeting acts like Lyle Lovett, Los Texmaniacs, Asleep at the Wheel, Calexico and Los Tucanes de Tijuana. That Arizona already has its own border wall/fence is a surprising reflection on wider news issues.

Halestorm: On Record
Presenter Matt Stocks has known Lizzy and Joe from the band for nearly 9 years now. Their new album was grittier, partly through working with a new producer who wanted them to sound more like they do live. It's their 4th album. They went back to basics in some areas to circumvent a bit of writers' block. They're concerned about social media influences. Their upcoming headline tour will be in bigger venues than their last such in 2012, supported by Avatar. They feel comedy has its place in rock.

Video Killed The Radio Star: Toyah Wilcox
Growing up in Birmingham with dyslexia was tricky, but she was drawn to the rock sounds of the area so she was already a punk by 1975. She respected Godley & Crème for the videos she did with them, was proud to work with Terence Donovan on one, recognised the importance of MTV to help her crack the world. Her tricky 2nd album was a direct attempt to move on.

BBC Proms 2018: Havana Meets Kingston
Mista Savona MC'd a band of musicians reviving memories of Buena Vista Social Club from 20 years ago (that was their stated excuse anyway). Whether Cuba and Jamaica are all that far apart in the first place is another question.

Sounds of the Dolomites
From 2017, a look at an annual festival held in the Trentino region of Italy, over 3 episodes, with presenter Francesco da Mosto talking to native guides, as well as some of the musicians who performed there, from accordionists to cellists. A pleasant change and stunning scenery.

American Valhalla
The story of how Iggy Pop got the hump with the Stooges, and hooked up with Joshua Homme instead. Firstly they worked on an album out at Josh's place near Joshua Tree, then finished it off at his studio in Burbank. Then they agreed to tour the album, which coincided with David Bowie dying. It inspired them even more, and they really enjoyed the whole collaborative experience.

John Bishop - In Conversation With : Will Young
He lives near Vivienne Westwood, and does a weekly podcast about LGBTQ issues with Chris Sweeney. He has issues similar to PTSD, and wonders whether he will keep performing (currently musical theatre is his main focus). He talked of recent suicidal feelings over pressure. He spoke of how winning Pop Idol fulfilled a dream, but he has changed his views on fame. Kevin Godley did the Leave Right Now one-take video. He appeared as a guest on the Parkinson chat show with Judi Dench, and mentioned wanting to do acting, after which he was called in for a film of hers. His photo of choice was of him performing with James Brown, an idol of his, at a concert. They met and performed together again, Brown even snubbing P Diddy at an event because he preferred to sing with Will instead. But Brown did tell him always to dress smart to perform.

BBC Proms 2018: Brahms Requiem
The Reverend Richard Coles presented as the BBC Symphony Orchestra were conducted by Richard Farnes on his debut through a piece by 90 year old Thea Musgrave (on its Proms premiere, written in 1998), and Brahms' German Requiem. The former piece was one of many this season from female composers, and the latter was one of many marking the centenary of the end of WW1. Brahms was described as a "skinny man in a fat man's body". Know the feeling.

Rhod Gilbert's Work Experience: Classical Musician
Welsh stand-up's long-running series in which he tries "real" jobs brought him to join the BBC National Orchestra of Wales on their appearance at the Last Night of the Proms last year, in Singleton Park, Swansea. Rhod, with no discernible musical ability, moved from instrument to instrument, failing at all of them, before finally finding himself on the timpani for a performance of Also Sprach Zarathustra. Was it alright on the night? At the 2nd time of trying it was.

Hollywood in Vienna 2017: Fairy Tales & A Tribute to Danny Elfman
The Wiener Konzerthaus saw the Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by James Shearman and then John Mauceri, through many film pieces from Mulan to Life of Pi to Sommersby to The Nightmare Before Christmas. Quite a pleasant show.

BBC Proms 2018: NYO at the Proms
The National Youth Orchestra got their chance to shine, with pieces by Mussorgsky, Ravel, Ligeti, Debussy, and even conductor for the night Sir George Benjamin.

Kerrang! meets Biffy Clyro
They formed in 1995, and have retained a fierce Scottish fan-base, and still live in Scotland. They started as 15 year olds as Screwfish, and spoke of the mystery over where their band name comes from. They have no plans to write happy songs. Having their song Many of Horror used by the X Factor gave them a mainstream exposure they accepted but would not have purposely sought. They learned the French lyrics so they could cover Tilted. They have fond memories of moments when they knew they were making it such as getting a Thumbs Up from Dave Grohl in Norway. They'll keep playing topless and still value the togetherness of their gang.

Air an Oir / On The Edge
Quirky tribute to the career of Runrig, from 1993, the Gaelic folk legends who coincidentally are putting on their final show tonight (the 18th).

Oasis - Live By The Sea
Live gig fro Southend Cliffs Pavilion in April 1995, with the original line-up still in place, and the 1st album forming the bulk of the set, before an encore cover of I Am The Walrus, sung as if memorised by a machine.

Amelle - My Career in Sugababes and Beyond
Another of these "artist links their career videos' formats, Amelle didn't have much insight to add other than they were almost all her favourites, and the Denial video was very funny to make.
