Had never seen these two before
Ed Rush & Optical - Dons

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Watched this last night and really enjoyed it. Gives a really strong sense of the time and place I think. I went to Tresor once in 2003 or 4, not that long before it closed down, and it really was a fantastic club. I'd love to have gone in the early 90s.

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Love this one too. Again about the time and the place as much as the music.

 

[blossie33]

Thanks for the link to the Tresor film, just watched it - great!

Just watching this doc on James Brown, I was never really into him before but it's converting me.

[stethoscope]

Great doc this from 92 about raving in the South West - 'Hardcore Outlaws'

 

[Mapped]

Not a documentary as such and not an interview, but there are interviews in it and the whole thing is probably not on youtube. But Nick Cave's 20000 days on Earth is a great watch

I really enjoyed that too but I've always loved James Brown, it's still on the iPlayer for anyone who wants to watch.

There's another wacky music doc on the iPlayer I enjoyed, in the Storyville series, called Rocking Cambodia: the Rise of a Diva.
