I haven't watched, but I will. I see a segment on Fela Kuti. The African Jazz pioneer of afro beat. Been interested in him since the 80's and have some of his vinyl and cd format. He was quite a voice in his Nigeria in the 70's. Very controversial with the Dictatorial regime there at the time. One of his cleverest songs and name of one of his albums from then was called, Expensive Shit. Having been harassed by govt. police regularly. A raid on his compound necessitated him having to eat his stash of herb to keep the arrest of him having any teeth in it to justify his arrest. No doubt his time in the slammer after that dry salad was easy peasy.

Are there any you watch semi-regularly or so? On YouTube via PBS, I'm a fan of Sound Field for musical trend breakdowns and back histories.
Nahre Sol from Sound Field has her own YT channel. She does a nice job breaking down all things piano. Another analyzing channel I like is Produce Like a Pro.
Sorry I've been out of touch, and thanks for the replies! I've also been following Bandsplaining on YT. Its recent video is "The Meltdown of Russia's Music Scene." Definitely timely.
