"This is the first episode of a major new landmark series
that travels through the Seven Ages of Rock - a journey
that takes us from sweaty clubs to vast stadiums, from
the crackly 45 to the MP3 download. Along the way, the
genre's greatest performers, writers and producers tell
us how rock emerged, grew, and gave voice to each new
generation that embraced it.

This episode looks at 1966. A young American guitarist
called Jimi Hendrix arrives in Britain to find a music
scene on the brink of major change. Artists like The
Beatles, Eric Clapton, The Rolling Stones and The Who
are all eager to move in new directions. But it's
Hendrix who has the musical pedigree and the vision to
ignite the revolution that will deliver to the world a
new, hard-edged music of attitude: Rock.

This is the story of that rock revolution of the 1960s,
as seen through the life and music of Jimi Hendrix. We
see how he became the first - ultimately doomed - icon
of rock. Delta blues man, Dylan-esque poet and
technological prophet, Hendrix was the synthesis of
everything that had gone before him and all that was to
come."

The story of how artistic and conceptual expression
permeated rock. From the pop-art multi-media experiments
of Andy Warhol and the Velvet Underground to the sinister
gentility of Peter Gabriel's Genesis, White Light, White
Heat traces how rock became a vehicle for artistic
ideas and theatrical performance. We follow Pink Floyd
from the fated art school genius of Syd Barrett through
the global success of Dark Side of the Moon to the
ultimate rock theatre show, The Wall. Along the way, the
film explores the retro-futurism of Roxy Music and the
protean world of David Bowie.
