Pop! What Is It Good For?

Whether you are still unconvinced about the power of popular music, you like smart ex-NME journalists talking about the music dialectic, or you simply love great pop TV – you must check out arts critic and author, Paul Morley's excellent documentary on BBC 4 last night. He explores and celebrates the beauty and mystery of three-minute pop single.

BBC4 are currently running an excellent season of programmes on pop music, including the excellent Pop Britannia series (Friday's at 10pm). You  can Watch Morley's excellent documentary and some of the other excellent programmes in the series on the BBC iPlayer online for the next 7 days.
