Creation Stories

Apr 15, 2021
L'histoire vraie de l'ascension et de la chute de Creation Records et de son infâme fondateur Alan McGee ; l'homme chargé de fournir la bande originale "Brit Pop" des années 90, une décennie de renaissance culturelle connue sous le nom de Cool Britannia. Des débuts modestes aux soirées de Downing Street, de l'esquive des huissiers à la sortie d'albums multi-platine, Creation avait tout pour plaire. Les pannes, les faillites, les bagarres et les amitiés… sans oublier la musique. Présentant certains des plus grands disques que vous ayez jamais entendus, nous suivons Alan à travers une brume de musique et de chaos alimentée par la drogue, alors que son rêve rock'n'roll apporte au monde Oasis, Primal Scream et d'autres groupes qui définissent la génération.

Skids Live 2010

Oct 31, 2010
In March 2010 Punk Legends The Skids reformed for the last time to play the famous Alhambra Theatre in Scotland. The gig was the culmination of a months retrospective celebrating the music, films and words of Skids front-man Richard Jobson. A sold out gig was caught on film by the team Jobson uses to shoot his movies. The result is a high energy performance that captures everything that was great about one of the best loved bands to come out of the Punk/New wave era. The film is inter-cut with an interview with Jobson on stage by crime novelist Ian Rankin.
