gosh there will never be another bowie

51:49 what is that live? I’ve tried and tried to find it but I cannot find it ANYWHERE. I really wanna hear that live of the Beatles Doing the jazzed version of That song

At what point was he in mott the hoople>

sonic youth and nirvana were alternative

Jimi Hendrix Rock, so why use his music in the intro? Eagles are LA Rock, The Kingsman are rock, The patti smith group is the beginnings of punk, Talking Heads are New Wave,

🥃 😑 thank you for uploading this; tying up the loose ends of my youth.

Best doc on punk

Narcissist. Nothing to do with the evolution of music.

dB makes meee sick!!!

One of the love's of my life Ziggy stardust 💫💕

First of all people in NY did plenty of lsd in the 60’s....it definitely caught on. And it was hugely popular. The Fillmore East for example had a large acid scene. Regularly. Not sure what wrote this but it’s pretty much shit. Pass.

Louis Firbank, Man!

These rock docs are the best thing i’ve seen in a long time. Thank you

I watched this documentary when it was first aired on PBS when I was 18. It had a profound influence on me. I discovered so much great music just from this episode alone. I've seen many rock docs since but this one is probably the best. The series went as far as the birth and subsequent growing popularity of rap with only a quick passing reference to the grunge scene with one quick shot of Nirvana playing live. It took itself a tad seriously at times but overall the doc was just outstanding from start to finish.

Why this has only 5k view is what’s wrong with the world....

When most people think of Andy Warhol they think of the Campbell’s soup cans but he influenced pop culture and rock music more than I had realized. Warhol and his friends really were ahead of their time, too bad he was just a user who tossed them to the side without a second thought.

the Holland Brothers are geniuses

pretty obvious that the Velvets were just a little too "real" for Los Angeles, they would get smacked in the face by reality, when Altamont and the Manson family, drop by. I believe Manson was the same year as their most holy of hippie landmarks, Woodstock.

I guess Lou Reed liked Raymond Chandler.

Iggy. the real "Motor city madman!"

Lou Reed, quite possibly, the coolest human being to have ever lived, and Mo Tucker, the coolest person ever employed by K-Mart.

The stones wrote stay cat blues after hearing heroin-well just the intro sound

It's easy to forget, but, Alice Cooper were one hell of a band!

gawd! I miss Bowie!!!

As an adult, I realize Jim Morrisson was a major league asshole, but he was genuinely weird, and opposite of the hippies.

As a teenager, I had read about the Velvet Underground, and was immediately interested, but I avoided buying any of heir records, for fear of being seen as cheesy, or whatever else, I finally broke down and picked up "the Velvet Underground and Nico, It was almost life altering, opening up a new world of literature, poetry, music, art, just an amazing piece of work!

Lou Reed, nobody has been cooler...

Great documentary but cutting the audio well, RUclips sucks!

Part 6 re-enacts the recording of Heroes in Berlin. I wonder if someone got upset that the revealed the mic placement.

Ralph Gleason was a jazz fan, so what can you expect.

I can't help but wonder what Maureen Tucker is doing for a living since her former employer K-mart has folded. I hope she's not stuck managing a Wal-mart, hopefully, she's working at a Target, or a Macy's, or, better yet, drumming in some great punk band someplace, that is on the verge of selling a zillion records!

Lou was not born with the surname Firbank. It was Reed.

no sound? you idiots!!

Florida's always been full of weirdo's; Why should the Door's be singled out?

8:49 Charlie with his ever present, "oh god, now what's he doing?" smirk

what sort of repressive culture, would ban a song? pretty much the same culture, that would put, the far more offensive "Cat scratch fever" on heavy rotation.

kinda makes you wonder if Tony DeFries is Donald Trump's manager...

"reminded viewers of nothing so much as Berlin in the decadent 30's" I know that supposed to be negative, but it makes me want to see them, more than anything!

Brian Holland and his brother grew up with Gospel Music just like the rest of the Motown artists. And it showed thru in the feeling in the songs they wrote.

where the fuck is part 6

i think thats what is missing today, charm school classes. people are so classless and rude nowadays.

berry gordy is a genius!

Sad how we treated black people so poorly way back when.

Doesn't follow any timeline, just bounces from one artist to another, sometimes obscure artist like Iggy Pop and Lou Reed.

DAMN! The fourth part was the one I was anticipating.

Say what you want about Kiss, "they suck" or "greatest band ever" seem to be the usual responses, but from what I have heard, seeing them live is something pretty special, and well worth, whatever they charge. I'm pretty ambivalent about their records, but, I would jump at the chance to see them live. I have also read, that Gene and Paul are considering hiring guys to wear the "warpaint" when they decide to retire...now these boys are great American capitalists!

Anyone remember the story of the time Iggy showed his rather large penis to Tina Louise (Ginger from Gilligan's Island) I forget how it goes...I think she left the bar in a hurry...frightened by Iggy's member...

As I get older, I realize that Jim Morrison was an asshole, but at least he seemed to be genuinely weird, and had a point. I am also happily surprised the producers of this film giving these groups, especially Iggy, their own chapter, instead of, just quickly brushing over them, or lumping to Doors into the California hippie movement.

Again The Beatles were way ahead of their time with the Rock & Roll Alter Ego.

love the technique to record the vocals
