kennywtelejazz Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 (edited) Hi Guy's , I have run across a few movies and documentary's where where Bands, Music , and gifted players have been featured . In some cases these movies and DVD's have revealed many facts and details about the musicians and the bands history I had not been aware of . What I would like to do here in this thread is to create a space where forum members can place their Movie / DVD recommendations w links to their favored flicks featuring players, bands , or anything you feel can bring value to us here on the forum ... It doesn't matter how humble or great the production is . If you have it or know about it please share it ... This post is merely an opening post , I plan on coming back here to add a few recent flicks I have recently posted in other threads . Thank you for considering sharing your flicks in advance , Kenny Edited February 15, 2019 by Kenny Wilson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulo Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 The ones that instantly spring to mind are old, but in case anyone hasn't seen them..... Sound City (netflix) Inside the Rhapsody (you tube) VH1 channel also did a whole series about Classic Albums which are pretty good if you like hearing how they were put together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.L.I.P. Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 ABOUT THE FILM Music lovers will be astonished at the influence The Wrecking Crew wielded over rock and pop music in the 1960s and early 1970s. These unsung instrumentalists were the de-facto backing band on hit records by The Beach Boys, Phil Spector, Frank Sinatra, Nancy Sinatra, Sonny & Cher, Elvis, The Monkees and many more. These dedicated musicians brought the flair and musicianship that made the American “West Coast Sound” a dominant cultural force around the world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennywtelejazz Posted February 16, 2019 Author Share Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) Standing in The Shadows of Motown trailer Standing in the Shadows of Motown The Full Movie . I have watched the full move VIA DVD and loved it. Be forewarned ,Some of the sections of this movie VIA the link I'm posting for it ...May get wonky ... The Vimeo player does not like to be slid around ..the other thing is I saw towards the end of the movie in the link I posted some out of sync audio that didot match the video . In any event , It sure beats a preview and it was OK for about an hour ..if somebody got a better link to full movie let me know . all the best, Kenny Edited February 16, 2019 by Kenny Wilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank You 12 hours ago, James G said: One of my favourites; Hi James , Yes , I certainly have to check out your Eagles suggestion ..That might be a really good one for me to check out ....Love a lot of their music Funny story , when I worked in music stores on W 48 th st . Joe Walsh would come in all the time , I have even waited on him and sold him some gear ... Boy Oh Boy he was a funny guy .. During one of his visits to the store I had sold him a battery powered amp that was built inside a full sized red gas can . He started joking around by asking me in front of the whole guitar dept if it was OK to come behind the guitar counter where I was standing so he could use has new gas can amp to take a piss in it ...no lie ....lol Right now time is of the essence , I will get back to you on your other videos suggestions once I do my daily chores .... thanks .. 6 hours ago, Hidden Symmetry said: And then watch this- Wish I knew hot to do a full quote around here ...this quote only shows what you said not what I said ... In any event, At the old Cakewalk Forum I had recommended The Wrecking Crew . For the record I was very outspoken about a number of things that happened to get under my skin and irk me about the movie ... FWIW the thing I learned the most from watching The Wrecking Crew was how to emulate Tommy T.....and Bull $hit like a Pro ... BTW I have already seen the movie you recommend ...

RobertWS Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I also recommend "Sound City". I watched it on a DVD from the library and my stereo (attached to my TV) never sounded so good. My contribution: The Beatles: Eight Days a Week - The Touring Years by Ron Howard. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2531318/ They were so good live it is unbelievable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
