Pete Townshend (Click here to buy video online)
7:00 a.m.
EST
Life of the guitarist, singer, & songwriter for "The Who" best known for his conceptual works, including "Tommy" and "Quadrophenia". Townshend's music perceived, distilled and played back what felt true about a moment in time and a socio-political climate, as clearly and authentically as only the blues and the first stirrings of rock and roll in the 1950s had. What he had to say was hard-edged, perceptive, often cynical and right on. It spawned an ongoing tradition of popular music whose form, performance and the lifestyle surrounding it embodied its messages. His writing power and vitality endure today, as does his influence on younger musicians and artists in many genres of live performance and new forms of theater. |

8:00 a.m.
EST
A profile of the rock band that got its name when drummer Keith Moon predicted how the band would go over with audiences after hearing their demo tape. Zeppelin's first album reached number 10 on the charts in 1969, and their popularity continued to grow with each subsequent album. But they were among the most hedonistic of all rock bands, and their indulgences led to a series of tragedies that ultimately broke up the band. |

Jimmy Doolittle did more to advance aviation than anyoone since the Wright Brothers. A daring test pilot, he often risked his life in order to help develop more reliable equipment. His experiments with blind flying helped bring about the age of dependable commercial aviation; but it was in warfare that he really made his name. From the legendary "Doolittle Raid" on Japan to his campaign turning work with the European 8th Air Force, we'll see how he turned the skies into his playground and helped win WWII. |
