The Seven Ages Of Rock Complete

Seven Ages of Rock was a BBC Two series, co-produced by BBC Worldwide and VH1Classic in 2007 about the history of rock music. It had six 60-minute episodes with a final episode of 90 minutes, and aired on Saturdays at 21:00 (repeated on BBC One on Sundays). Each episode focused on one type of rock music, each typified by one or two artists or bands. The series producer was William Naylor, and the executive producer for the BBC was Michael Poole, a former editor of the 1990s BBC music, arts and culture programme The Late Show. The production was based at BBC Bristol and each programme was narrated by Julian Rhind-Tutt on the BBC and Dennis Hopper on VH1 classic.[1][2] The series also included additional material broadcast on BBC radio and available on the BBC website. [edit] Series structure The series makes heavy use of archive material. These early performances of musicians are interspersed with interviews with various other musicians. Naylor could use interviews from various other music series he had made for the BBC, such as with David Bowie, who was not available for an interview this time. In an interview about the series, Naylor says that he has noticed the time is ripe for a revival of rock because he sees a growing popularity of slightly uncomfortable music and a somewhat arrogant attitude, precisely what rock needs.[citation needed] He also claims the series finally says what needed to be said, that England made Jimi Hendrix. He even states that rock music started on 24 September 1966 in London, when Jimi Hendrix went there. The series did receive some criticism from the press as it ignored Rock and roll\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s contribution to the birth of rock. Neil McCormick, music critic for the Daily Telegraph (who appeared in one of the episodes as an interviewee) said: \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"...popular music only really gelled into what we now know as rock when Hendrix arrived in London in 1966.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"[2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_ages_of_rock In this torrent you\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'ll find all seven episodes in seven avi-files. 01.

Thanks for this Rik.
I missed a couple of eps when it was broadcast.
It's a good series although I would point people towards "dancing in the street a rock and roll history" (BBC 1995) for a fuller history of Rock and Roll. In fact I noticed that there are quite a few interviews in Seven Ages that are taken straight from the 1995 series.
I just wouldn't get too hung up on how one particular kind of music "started", I wish they wouldn't bother bother with such claims that such a person or one type of people created a style of music, when you can find lots of influences from many cultures.
Thanks again for the up.

Great stuff, thanks for uploading. I noticed sound and video are out of synchr. Just to save you some searches on Google, if you use VLC like me than you can just press, while you're watching the video, the J or K keys to move the audio back or forward 50 milliseconds, respectively.
With thanks to 'Lifehacker' from who I got the info...
