...new to me.
ReplyDeleteMe, too.
DeleteHead banging music. Ummmm, no.
ReplyDeleteIt's not about the music. It's the tale of a the band, a band that didn't achieve break-through status while the bands influenced by them did.
DeleteI think I'll give this one a pass.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't have watched it if it hadn't come so highly recommended.
DeleteThis "rockumentary" sounds interesting and comes so very highly recommended, definately worth trying 😀. Thanks for sharing and have a lovely week! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed hearing their story. His wife's take was interesting.
DeleteThis sounds really interesting. It has great reviews too. Once I get some time I'll check it out.
ReplyDeleteI hope you like it.
DeleteSounds interesting, I've bookmarked it! Thanks, Valerie
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy it :)
DeleteIt's not a band I've heard of, but agree interesting that they influenced more success in others than achieved themselves ... but maybe that is their mission/purpose on their path to greatness.
ReplyDeleteExcept they never got to greatness themselves. I loved that the bands that did get there made efforts to help them.
DeleteI've been having trouble leaving comments. In fact, for nearly two days, even though I kept refreshing, there was no comment box at all. This was especially true for embedded comment boxes like yours. It must have been a Blogger glitch. I sincerely hope this is now straightened out.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds similar to some of the problems my friend Joseph went through when he was hiring an agent. The agent told him that the steel drum was too prominent in his work and to use less of it. Needless to say, he didn't hire the guy. I'll watch this when I have a chance.
I haven't had any commenting trouble so can't guess what the problem has been. I've missed you!
DeleteAgents are key players. It's interesting to hear some musicians who've made it big and others who've struggled to get even local attention and wonder what happened.
Very interesting story.
ReplyDeleteI thought so. I'm glad you did, too :)
