Beast of Burden
Another one from the same series is a now a cult classic and if you watch the whole thing, you will understand why. Taylor Parkes wrote very well about this.

Anyone for some Go-Go, documentary here. Never really took off in the UK apart from a couple of compilations and a few hits over a year or so.

Cocksucker Blues is terrible BTW. My favourite music documentary is the Rock Family Trees episode about the Liverpool scene around Eric's. Pete Burns getting chased down the street by teenage girls after You Spin Me Round hits the charts, not for autographs - just to kill him. "They were like farm women."

For band docs, I think 'we jam econo' is pretty unassailable:

Anyway, it's the history of Minutemen/ D Boon and is awesome, despite the presence of Flea ;)

Just watched this today, its fantastic. What a band!

This is amazing: looks similar to what happened at Bloc, although they just about managed to hold this together til the end.
