Again, I think that this show didn't have music as a central element and I'm not sure if the music was contemporary...definitely had a focus on more hard rock acts, if I recall. Midnight Oil's drummer Rob Hirst did the title music for this and there is a You Tube of him performing it for the show's opening credits.

Couldn't find a match for "MTV", so maybe you can count this as either a vote for "MTV Unplugged" or MTV in general?

This looked an excellent programme. "Rage" broadcast an old episode of this show which I've been informed was based out of Adelaide. The episode I saw a bit of had Australian punk pioneers Radio Birdman being interviewed as well as performing some songs. The show also actually made a music video for a Richard Hell song, I believe. If that episode was typical, a box set wouldn't be out of the question for me...if they made it!
