VHI Classic Albums

So I was surfing the tube over the holiday and stopped at the VH1 Classics channel.

Probably the best 'music video' channel on the dial.

Anyhoo, they were showing a series called "Classic Albums". It was a behind the scenes documentary on the production of a spotlighted album.

I saw the episodes with Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" and The Who's "Who's Next".

It was really interesting watching the producers and performers discuss the making of these albums. especially interesting is when they deconstruct the master recordings right in the studio and discuss effects and individual tracks.

Amazon carries several episodes of the series and I am buying the Steely Dan "AJA" episode based on what I have seen already. They are pretty cheap, too.
