A new ABC documentary relives the wackiness on every Saturday from 1996 to 2000 in a show more radical than you may remember
In a full embrace of 90s nostalgia, I donned a pair of brown corduroy trousers, cracked a cold longneck of Carlton Draught and settled in to watch Recovery: The
music & The Mayhem, a documentary about the generation-defining ABC music show that aired on Saturday mornings from 1996 to 2000.
Celebrated for bringing local and international bands into suburban living rooms, it was also rife with pranks, games and zany segments that took in everything from nude lawn-mowing to horror movies.
