 UKTV Gold - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
UKTV Gold, known as UK Gold until March 8, 2004, is a British television channel, originally launched on November 1, 1992 (coincidentally, the day before Channel 4's 10th birthday) as a joint venture between Thames Television and the BBC to show their 'classic' archive programming (see: rerun).
Initially broadcast on an analogue transponder from a SES Astra satellite at 19.2°E which was not primarily intended for UK reception, the channel used to be notorious for being marred with 'sparklies' in large parts of the UK.
UK Gold's success led to the creation of UKTV, still part-owned by the BBC, which operates several channels showing different types of archive programming.

 New Gibraltar Encyclopedia of Progressive Rock GR-GY
The self-titled album was recorded in late 1972, and is very representative of the organ/guitar dominated UK progressive rock of that period, comparable to bands such as Fields, Cressida, etc. The accent on Greenslade's organ-work also brings to mind The Nice.
These guys are a newer band on the UK scene, frequently opening for bands like Jadis and Pendragon, and have recently release their first album.
Grime were a French band similar to Ange, Mona Lisa, and the like, for the dramatic nature of their presentations, both vocally and musically, though I detect an additional influence from UK groups of the mid-seventies, including Greenslade and Genesis.
