Too Good To Be True?

90%(1)IMDbDocumentary

Tom Robinson is a curious fellow. From suffering a nervous breakdown as a young man he became an articulate banner waving rock star. After becoming a prominent gay spokesman he ended up falling in love with and marrying a woman. From the New Wave of Tom Robinson Band he's ended up as a respected, award winning radio presenter at the BBC. In 1978 Granada Television afforded him a generous 45 minute documentary "Too Good To Be True", which has remained largely unseen since its original broadcast in 1979 until it's release last week as part of an Anthology set which includes the group's two albums. Director Mick Gold manages to get under the skin of both the man and his band in a way few such enterprises manage.
