I wish more bands would do this this show has really opened my eyes to more genres of music like for example i now love trouble funk and zac brown and fugazi but before this show i wouldnt even touch that kind of music this show isnt for every one but it is essential for everyone like me and maybe you

This program is a showcase of more than just American music. This entire miniseries is a celebration of American culture and very distinct style to their music. The album itself isn't half bad either, with every song fitting the city well. Dave explores all the outlets to show the evolution and unity of out singular culture, giving us a loving tribute from a man in the business. The series has a little something for everyone, with every style represented in every city. The editing is beautiful, the cities are chosen well (though I personally would have included Atlanta, Detroit, and maybe San Francisco as well), and the songs are great. It's just a brilliant salute to our nation all around.

First of all, I have to make clear I do not play an instrument, can't read music I am merely an admirer of those who can.And this documentary explains a lot! On why musicians make choices, how they get inspired, how they get influenced. Besides that it explains a lot on how the USA evolved when it comes to music, how musical as well as political influences from different states and across borders brought us the music we love so much.A monument on music because this documentary really gives a good insight on how harsh the world of music is decade by decade. Showing respect to all the musical streams you can hardly imagine they even existed. A must see for everyone who wants to know why we listen to what we listen and how it deserved its footprint in history.piece of advice, grab a notepad and write down the names of the artists you have never heard of or almost forgot about. And don't forget that every episode comes to end which explains the lyrics of the songs which resulted out of this great project from the Foo Fighters.

If you watched Dave Grohl's Sound City you already know how this is gonna go: You will be taken to a time where auto tune didn't exist, where the musician had to be great because he was great, not because he had a good producer that know's his way with a computer. He interviews music legends, and a lot of the episode revolves around Buddy Guy and Muddy Waters... You see how much they influenced Chicago's music community... You also get to know how Dave's love for Punk Rock started, and we thank his cousin Tracey Bradford for that, we wouldn't have Foo Fighters, and Nirvana as we know it if it wasn't for her. We also get to see how the interviews influenced the lyrics of the songs, we get little pieces here and there, and in the end, it all makes sense!I can't wait to see what it comes next, what will happen in New York, California, Texas, Washington and so on.
