About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an intimate, celebratory music documentary about influence and legacy, similar in spirit to Marley or Lemmy; Not for you if you prefer a detached, purely fact-driven biography.
Pros: heartfelt tribute; strong music history; personal perspective | Cons: narrow focus; less for newcomers; limited critical distance
