Parece que hace poco la BBC ha emitido un reportaje sobre la historia de Rough Trade. El efecto en algunos blogs que sigo ha sido fulminante: Momus hace una magnífica disección sobre ello http://imomus.livejournal.com/445131.html y la ética indie (con sabrosos comentarios sobre su relación con Rough Trade, Scritti Politti, Mike Alway, el marxismo, el marketing y los monopolios...) "For a brief moment in time," says Rough Trader Steve Montgomery, "we encapsulated everything that was right about the human race".
También A jumped-up pantry boy se hace eco del programa http://pantry.wordpress.com/2009/03/14/wurlitzer-jukebox/, aunque se centra más en el tema musical: we had the pleasure of seeing in action Young Marble Giants, the Raincoats, Delta 5, Weekend, Robert Wyatt, Microdisney – Cathal Coughlan magnificent in ill-fitting trousers and a green jacket borrowed from the US Masters – Violent Femmes, James performing ‘Sit down’ on Wogan, and even Camper Van Beethoven doing – you guessed it – ‘Take the skinheads bowling’. These may be more or less available via YouTube but here it was all nicely packaged into as pleasurable an hour of music television as I ever remember seeing.
Momus nos da pistas sobre donde bajarnos el programa ya desaparecido de la web de la BBC. Por tanto, If you're outside the UK, and lucky, it may still be available here.
