I still have my NZ (collectors edition) MUSIC CATALOGUE detailing the artists, the producers, recording studios and the actual recording "order" number - to allow anyone to pre-order any item they wish - circa about mid 1970. I too could do a doco' - flipping though it's pages - but then no one would ever get to "listen" to such as Hogg Snort Rupert's tunes, nor Uriah Heap, Alice Cooper & Black Sabbath (I did however order the vinyl & compact cassette versions of a BANNED record, (before it was "released as it was banned from being sold) made back then by Ian Dury & The Blockheads. Many years later - it began getting air time on local radios but no one could ever get "pressings" or tapes. I had both, never sold them and NEVER played them except to dub them to 'play with" to ensure they lasted a lifetime. They are somewhere in my huge 1960's & 1970's collection of tapes (reel-to-reels and compact cassette) & my even bigger collection of 1980's vinyl along with many a CD bought mid 1990's onwards. However none bring tears to my eyes, as much as Ian Dury used too - especially when about 20 years later a "household cleaning detergent advert for TV (by a WELL KNOWN MANUFACTURER) used their Plasto Patricia "tune" to sell their SPRAY & WIPE window cleaner.. Only someone who had a record / tape etc., or had ever heard of a BANNED BEFORE SALES tune from the Ian Dury NEW BOOTS & PANTIES (1977) album, could possibly understand that the promotional advert maker had accidentally used, possibly the worlds filthiest tune, or a window cleaning product. But see, almost NO ONE in NZ at the time, or even today - know the tune. I KNOW THE TUNE & always laughed hard at he advert. How the hell was a NZ housewife supposed to "get her windows streak free & clean", with one of the filthiest tunes ever?

Thanks for the documentary - but I would have preferred the vinyl to have been spun with a "needle" pickup (music to my ears isn't a mono documentary)

Thanks for your comments. That background music in the video is violinist Heimo Haitto with his self titled LP. It is a mono recording and perhaps more importantly so obscure that there was no worry of a copyright strike from KZbin.
