Worst: How would I know? It's not like I collect bad music.

Also, as the decade went on, the imagery evoked became less pleasantly nostalgic, and more suggestive of an aggressive, go- getting attitude which can never seem so reassuring no matter how hard a programme like this tries. I didn't see most of the '88 programme, but I would suspect that it was the contrast with everything else in the mainstream which, by definition, dominated the show, which made the Acid House scenes seem so other-worldly, more than the historical distance.

I cant see I love 1981 as being any cooler than I love 1989, sorry.
Wait until the nostalgia bugs have passed over, then check out what they didn't scavenge. It'll usually have been too crass, or too complex, or both. Either way, you win.

However, if the programme is well-made and well-produced and I find what is in it interesting and revealing and I quite like a lot of it, I can like the programme (while disliking the ideas behind it). I thought I Love 1981 was fantastic, lovingly-made television. But every one of Mark Morris's words on the format remain true.

Has this thread been done on ILM elsewhere? I can't believe this faded out in 2001.
