I have a whole new appreciation for Jakob Dylan and Fiona Apple. [19.45 to 22:50] They should do an entire album as a duet. This is about the music of my era and I have watched it ten times in two weeks. Wonderful mix of history, interviews, along with the original and the tribute music. They showed what is missing today with young artists. It covers a section of California, a large neighborhood where a lot of the great musicians from the 60's and 70's lived, hung out and collaborated. Collaborated. Unadulterated collaboration. Here is what I took from this finely woven piece of historical cloth. What they did then, is not being done today. Fear in the music industry, about intellectual property, has created a less-rich culture for musical development. What worked so well then, is not happening in today's sterile-IP-paranoid culture. I'm going to watch and listen, again and again. And every time I do I see and hear something new. I think it is that good. And the message to today's artists is spot-on.
