Love the way you've put this. It was a dreadful show, and thankfully I dozed off by about 11. There was some great footage in there but, as you say, that was limited to 5 to 10 seconds. The live/contemporary stuff was utterly dire too. Never mind, BBC4 are showing something on minimalism next...
Dare I say it, it looks horribly white, male and middle class. Best things so far have been Curtis Mayfield and Bob Marley who at least share one of those.
