The Rock & Roll story of heavy metal band Third Leg. Something about a gig coming up and they have interviews etc. Quite heartfelt, emotional, comedic and overall metal, the whole ensemble. The censors advised that this was the most efficient way to describe this film.School of Rock

IMDB 0 | Dec , 1980
Rockpile recorded their installment of the German TV show Rockpalast in January 1980, a few months before the appearance of their lone LP, Seconds of Pleasure, but at that point, the quartet were a fixture on the new wave scene, touring constantly and appearing on solo LPs by their co-leaders Dave Edmunds and Nick Lowe. All this is a roundabout way of saying that Rockpile wasn't hurting for material: they drew heavily upon Edmunds' solo records in particular -- 13 of the songs on this 17-song setlist appeared on one of Dave's LPs -- interspersing a few rock & roll oldies along with songs from Nick, plus a showcase for Billy BremnerClassic Albums: Pink Floyd - The Making of The Dark Side of the Moon
