In This Episode
In this week’s edition of The Green Room, Deputy Editor of The Spectator’s world edition Dominic Green and co-host Arsalan Mohammad take a look back half a century to 1971, a year currently being explored in a magnificent eight-part documentary series on Apple+ TV. The series goes deep into that epochal year’s music and social upheavals around the worldand is highly recommended.
