Music Part Two

Music is everywhere. I have just spent half an hour flicking through the Music channels on Sky. I used to be a devoted MTV2 fan, but over the last year I have not watched much of it.

There wasn't much to excite me and I found myself drawn to the VH1 channel and their 80s's at 8 feature.

I didn't mention Bill Nelson in my last post about Music. Be Bop Deluxe (his first band) were my first great music passion. All thanks to Allan Freeman and his Saturday show on Radio 1, although John Peel did champion them as well. I met Bill Nelson once circa 1982 when he was doing a PA at nightclub in Manchester. He was a nice bloke and was very good humoured and patient with me and my friend Mark.

He has a website This one and still makes great music.
