TV tonight 1st Feb - Blue eyed soul

[Kevinkent]

Just spotted this on the freesat TV guide:

The History of Blue-Eyed Soul ....."Artists down the decades have been inspired by the silky, sultry sound of soul and we showcase some of their best songs here."

Showing tonight 1st Feb 2018 at 8pm on 'Vintage TV' freesat channel 505.

i've never viewed this channel before so have no idea of the format, but am guessing that it might be just a collection of film clips rather than a documentary.

Edit - just seen a trailer and part of another similar programme, covering other genres, on this channel. Both had well reasoned choices and good narration. Could be worthwhile.

Mods, please feel free to move this if it's in the wrong place.

It's usually MTV style videos, TV live appearances or concerts, not documentaries with commentary, talking heads, etc.

Opened with Eurythmics, followed by Phil Collins then Hall & Oates.

No longer matters how it's packaged - I'm changing channels.

Sorry people.

I think it's the same vintage tv channel as freeview 82, they had an attempt at a Motown special a few months ago some of the footage it showed was great but I wasn't aware that Al Green The Drifters or Luther Vandross were Motown acts. Clueless.

What a sad piece of TV and I’m so glad I was able to watch it later and skip through all 1hr of garbage .... 

 

Hope Mark King will be a little better , but this Vintage load of cheese certainly hasn’t matured that well at all 👎

Big thumbs down
