Golden Age of Rock'n'Roll (1991– ) User Reviews

Just Great

[Magnuzone · 9/10 · 21 February 2007]

I saw this series on the old TV channel Super Channel. John Sebastian the founder of "The Lovin' Spoonful" as the host, working his way over the entire 60's, and ending - I think - somewhere at the time of when the The Black Crows started.

A HIGHLY recommend this title/series to everyone who is even remotely interested in the 60's, or rock'n roll at all for that matter. No series about old rock & pop music is yet to reach the standard of "Golden Age of Rock'n'Roll". With an impressive guest list containing almost every still living star from that era.

It's just the best I've ever seen. And I have seen a lot. the big difference between this series and many other is that it focuses on the music.

Excellent documentary series

John Sebastian, famous for being the lead singer of the Lovin' Spoonful, presents a documentary series on the history of rock 'n roll. Over ten episodes the series covers subjects such as the birth of rock 'n roll, its heroes, its sub-genres and its pivotal moments, to name but a few.

A definitive documentary series on rock music. John Sebestian provides a thoughtful yet insightful narration on one of music's key genres, and the key musical innovation and evolution of the latter half of the 20th century.

The non-linear episode structure makes for some interesting detours and in-depth studies. Great archival footage as well as interviews makes for an enthralling journey.
