Some muusic docs I've recently enjoyed:
- "The Shield Around the K" is the inspiring story of K Records and the Olympia community. For fans of K, mostly.
- "Looking for a Thrill" features 100 musicians letting us know what inspired them in the first place. This is like 300 minutes long, so a bit overwhelming.
- "Metal - a Headbangers Journey" provides a history of metal and interviews with lotsa metal musicians. But the best footage is swiped from Heavy Metal Parking Lot.
- "Off the Charts - the Song-Poem story" is about regular folks who send their poetry to Nashville, kinda hoping for a record deal. Quite hilarious and normalizing.
Mog is great because people talk about the strangest stuff... A couple weeks ago, a good mogger mentioned an upcoming music doc about a group of geriatrics who tour the world singing rock songs! Here's a nice clip... Young@Heart... covering... Sonic Youth...
Looking forward to more bizarro!

Yep, pretty much the general craziness from Germany.

I always enjoyed the Motorhead documentary about the making of Ace of Spades. Wish I coulda been there in person to experience the insanity and drug overindulgence!
