British Rock - The First Wave (PBS)
1985
Narrated by: Michael York
Well produced documentary covering the roots of British Rock.
The 50's, Skiffle, The Mersey Sound, The London Blues Scene,
Mod London and the Psychedelic Revolution. It's all covered
with great narration and music of the times. Plus, there
are many live performances by The Beatles, Gerry and the Pacemakers,
The Roling Stones, The Hollies, The Kinks, Herman's Hermits,
The Animals, Manfred Mann and many more. Plenty of news footage
and interviews from those times give a nice feel to this video.
