Default Howard Goodall's 20th century greats

anyone else ever watched this? it's on at 11 on channel 4 every morning. brilliant series about the greatest songwriters and composers from the last century examining their musical techniques and tricks. the great thing is though that it's presented so even if you have only a basic understanding of music you can understand what howard goodall is talking about. today's is on cole porter and hugely interesting it is too.

It is indeed a fantastic programme. The Beatles episode was particularly interesting.

Damn!! I wish I'd watched these. I (honestly!!) thought it would be about English football players of the 60s-80s. I was thinking Howard Kendal!!!

i think this is the third time the series has been shown so i'm sure it'll be on again at some point. worth a look anyway.
