"Contains unlicensed audio track" ?!
This must be irony. As if I could watch it "legally" somewhere else … Where?
Either get stuff up on pay-platforms like iTunes & Co. so we can stream it there officially or leave it here for free and be happy someone is still caring.

What happened with sound? Could you upload it in Vimeo? It's an excelent documentary.
Thanks so much for sharing. :)

Can anyone tell me which group is featured in the photo at 20:42, or on which album sleeve it appears?
On a Grierson-related note, does anyone know if his film (an excerpt of which is show at 34:40, though the title isn't mentioned in the documentary) was ever screened on television or made available anywhere?

Como extraño esta época de mi vida, descubrir todas esas bandas me transformo mi vida, ahora siento y creo que nunca un sello podra producir tanto talento. Que bello ver este tipo de documental, algo que nunca imagine verlo.
