Jarvis Cocker's Musical Map of Sheffield
BBC Radio 2/July 2008
"Former Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker takes you on an intimate tour of Sheffield. In his evocative musical map, Jarvis creates a soundtrack that drives his memories, feelings and observations about his home town. Growing up in a city that was still reeling from the loss of big industry, Jarvis recalls his childhood, surrounded by family, and listening to conversations about love and disappointment. Along the way, he introduces the music of Sheffield legends, including Joe Cocker, Cabaret Voltaire, The Human League and Artery."

Many thanks for the Musical Map of Sheffield, as I never bother to check out BBC2.

You're welcome Sonia. Thanks for your reply :smile:

Personally I find keeping up with all the channels a real pain. However more music based documentaries on the way here. I have a ton of stuff that I've recorded over the years.

    Although the clean-feed policy is targeted solely at "vulnerable" children, official statistics show that a large majority of internet-connected households in Australia have no children under 15. According to ABS research (Household use of information technology2006-07), the number of households wi ...

    When we heard the 7.30 Report was preparing a report on the clean feed policy, we were hopeful that a serious piece would highlight some of the major concerns with the policy. When the story opened with "A monster is loose in suburbia", it was obvious this was not to be. Although the ABC interviewe ...

    Whirlpool's Australian Broadband Survey for 2007 included a question about the clean-feed policy. The survey was completed and verified 17,881 times, and the results prove what we've been saying all along - very few Australians want a filtered connection. In response to the question "Do you suppor ...

    The Labor budget is out, and - to our dismay - there is enough money in there to be dangerous when it comes to the clean-feed. About $150m is allocated to "cyber-safety", a lot of it for more sensible measures such as education and policing of illegal material. However, there is an ominous chunk of ...
