About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you like music docs that dive into how a major album came together and want a close-up, nostalgic look at a band’s creative process; Not for you if you want broader music history like Soul Power.

Pros: behind-the-scenes access; energetic music focus; nostalgic time-capsule feel | Cons: narrow appeal; light on critique; mostly for fans
