Really, really well done. I reacted to both the music and the stories in a way that sometimes brought me to the edge of tears--happy and sad.

Wow! Do NOT miss the ending! This is a great doc about the history - both good and bad - of the music industry in the US. Thanks for taking the time to put this together and letting these artists know they are not forgotten.
