Praise for the CBC

An informal rule I like to keep on this blog is to give credit to enemies/opponents/detractors and things/people/stuff that I would normally criticize when they do good. Tonight, such credit is due to the CBC, whose documentary "Shakin' All Over" was very, very good. They threw in a little bit of CanCod feel-goody stuff, but only in the last five minutes of the two-hour special. They covered all the bases, interviewed everyone from Randy Bachman to Robbie Robertson to Anne Murray to Sarah Harmer to Buffie St. Marie. I learned a lot about how much 1960s rock music history is tied to Canada. If you missed it, don't worry. I'm sure it will air about 10 more times in the next few months.
