We Who Wait: The Adverts & TV Smith (Full Stream!)
An amazing BBC hour-long documentary on The Adverts and TV Smith, marred only by sprinting through the 90's/00's at the expense of so much great music (how could they leave out the TV/Die Toten Hosen alliance all togther?)
Probably the best hour of television we've had in England in the last decade, if only because it's unusual to get national coverage of a peripheral figure like Tim. Well done BBC for putting this out.
By the way, I just picked up Lucky Us, the new demo compilation from 83-86, and what a great couple of albums we could have had back then if only a record company had been interested...
I also realised that the forthcoming Sleaze release is vinyl only - sadly no use to me these days - so if anyone wants to help me out with a rip when it's out that would be much appreciated.

I'll put the word out - hopefully a downloadable version will come up...
DeleteI await, with bated breath, for a space of time long enough to watch this in it's entirety. Thanks for linking me up Jeffen!
