Fanny: The Right to Rock
Fanny: The Right to Rock
The story of critically acclaimed 1970s all-woman Filipino rock group Fanny, who despite critical acclaim and regular tours with bands including Chicago, Steely Dan and Slade, faced both sexism and racism. Now as they re-form to record a new album in their seventies, they challenge the stigma of ageism as well. With contributions from Bonnie Raitt, Todd Rundgren, the Runaways' Cherie Currie, Lovin' Spoonful's John Sebastien, Def Leppard's Joe Elliott, David Bowie's guitarist Earl Slick and bassist Gail Ann Dorsey, and Steely Dan's Jeff 'Skunk' Baxter
Fanny: The Right to Rock airs on BBC Four HD at 11:00 PM, Friday 13 November. (Subtitles.)
