Enjoyed watching this tonight on BBC iplayer - about British bands breaking into US in the late 70's and early 80's

Wow! just watched the program.

Odd that I worked on the MTV pop vid with Dire Straits. I never knew what was going on at the time. It was just a really exiting time for music and I had other things vying for my attention (yes young Mr Fife, you were the main one)

Glad I caught this. Who'd have thought that Sting and the boys were the zeitgeist back then.
