MUST MUST MUST MUST Watch. I hope it makes it over to Singapore!
From the description:
"The history of the electric guitar as seen from the point of view of three significant musicians: Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, U2's The Edge and the White Stripes' Jack White. It tells the personal stories, of three generations of electric guitar virtuosos. It reveals how each developed his unique sound and style of playing his favorite instrument. Concentrating on the artists musical rebellion, traveling with him to influential locations and provoking rare discussion as to how and why he writes and plays."
There've been so many commercial documentaries that try to showcase, a certain sub-culture (be it sneakers, hackers, corporate investing) but tend to just gloss over and miss so many nuances and many times the main essence of the culture and the driving forces behind them. This one seems like it might finally get it. I hope it does. Really.
Thanks Hans for the all important Heads Up!
