Pulp
And today with have two Pulp documentaries.
No Sleep Till Sheffield: Pulp Go Public (1995)
Short and not particularly deep but a lovely throwback to the mid-90s. Also old enough that it still has (for whatever reason!) a random spot of Gary Glitter.
The Story Of… Pulp’s Common People (2006)
Longer and somewhat more in-depth, though with a tendency to wander off – the pub analysis was un-needed – and stray from from the narrative under construction. No obvious disgraced celebrities feature in this one but there was a small callout out to Rolf Harris and his stylophone.
Manic Street Preachers – From There To Here (BBC2 1998)
Another nice mid-90s documentary, this time on the Manic Street Preachers.
Alev Lenz – Fall Into Me
As used a the end of one of the better Black Mirror episodes.
Faster
The Manic Street Preacher’s Faster (which, somehow, manages to have a music video that feels like a pastiche of Apple adverts half a decade before that campaign actually kicked off).
Godzilla
Blue Oyster Cult’s Godzilla played on a Gayageum.
Daily
Daily, by Clarice Jensen.
But is it Art?

Interlude
Another musical interlude.
P-p-p-p-p-p Pancake Day!
I suspect that one has to be of a certain age to fully enjoy this classic 80s masterpiece.
Alas, from what I’ve seen on Youtube, the rest of Maid Marian and Her Merry Men hasn’t retained quite the same level of charm.
