Band/artist documentaries.


These types of films may not be for everyone, but I’ve been on a viewing kick recently and encourage your recommendations for all to enjoy. It’s been interesting to see the stories of the various subjects and get some great insights, stories, and entertaining anecdotes firsthand. Listed below are a few I’ve seen and can recommend. Please follow suit with yours - and enjoy!

Music from the inside out

The Last Waltz (of course)

Lost Angel (Judee Sill)

Sound City

Neil Young - Journeys

David Crosby - Remember my name

Linda Ronstadt - The sound of my voice

Rumble

Once Were Brothers (The Band)

Muscle Shoals

The Wrecking Crew

Standing in the Shadows of Motown

Seymour: An Introduction

YMMV, but having a full blown home theater set up with a 9 foot projection screen sure does enhance the experience...

Documentary on Muscle Shoals; https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2492916/

 

Unbelievable what Rick Hall put together at Fame Studios in that Alabama town.

What the Hell happened to Blood Sweat and Tears.

Another interesting aspect.....

Festival Express 1970 is currently streaming. That's a hoot.

The Bogdanovich documentary on Petty was excellent.

Loved Ken Burns' "Country Music"

Beware of Mr. Baker is a must.

Beware of Mr. Baker-How many documentaries begin with the subject assaulting the director? LOL
