BBC's 80s Black Music Legends

Has anyone been watching this series? Four episodes concluding last week with Public Enemy: Prophets of Rage.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/prog...odes/guide

Non-UK folk, you can download these as torrents (search for artist name followed by "pdtv").

Against the ruin of the world, there
is only one defense: the creative act.

It was part of BBC Four's American culture season, or something like that. So no Brits.

Yes, I've caught them all except the Public Enemy one so far. nod There was even an hour of performances of 'Lionel Richie at the BBC'. Woo! lol

They were all good. One of the best Prince docs I've seen in a while. Janet Jackson and Lionel Richie's were interesting. The Public Enemy one was great. Made me wanna listen to them again.
