Absolutely. That's the way it used to be done.Quality TV! went to see many a band at City Hall etc, that I hadnt heard of after seeing them on it.
Most of the bands from foreign shores appeared on it at the start of their tours--back then of course no social media so see new and upcoming stuff!
I remember sneaking downstairs when my parents went to bed. Our TV was Rediffusion and had a headphone socket which allowed me to watch it undetected.
It was my first experience of many bands but this fella was maybe the most notable end enduring love affair that came from the show's simple format based on albums rather than pop hits..
