McCartney 3,2,1: A Documentary

Paul McCartney is simply ageless. Although his face may have a few more lines and wrinkles, he still doesn’t present as a man who is pushing 80 next year. His energy and drive are that of a man a third of his age. This documentary, produced by Rick Rubin, is 6 parts of utter magic, …

Eternal Romance, Love Songs of the 60’s through the 90’s

The idea of courtly or romantic love goes back to ancient times but really took on a more modern understanding of the topic in the Medieval Ages and thereafter.

Studio 54: The Documentary

The Tragic Rise and Fall of Badfinger

Badfinger has always been a baffling mystery to many music aficionados. Often called “The Original Power Pop Band,” the band was mega-talented and very connected, but for some reason, they never were able to achieve the level of stardom they once appeared to be headed for. This band had all the necessary components to be …

Empire Records: A Retro Review

“Empire Records” is one of those quirky 90s films where in a single day, in one music store, every conceivable thing happens to every conceivable character, and at the end of the day, they are all a lot wiser.

Since the 80’s, Poison has given us “nothing but a good time,” and served up some hard driving rock & roll as well.

That Thing You Do: Retro Review

That Thing You Do is the story of a young band of Beatle-like clones, who stumble upon a hit single. Before long, the wide-eyed Wonders find themselves on the radio, touring state fairs, in a cheesy beach movie and on a popular TV show—all on the strength of one song. But what a song! In …
