New York Doll is a documentary based on the life of former New York Dolls member Arthur Kane. It was nominated for both a Satellite Award and a Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival, where it premiered in 2005.
quote:
The film details the history of both the New York Dolls and one of its members, Arthur "Killer" Kane. The film narrates the history of the band from its formation in 1972, through its drug problems and the deaths of several of its members. The central focus of the film, however, is Arthur's life after conversion to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints after struggles with alcoholism, drug abuse, an attempt at suicide, and a 1992 beating with a baseball bat (falsely rumored to be related to the Rodney King riots happening at the same time) that left him near death and needing a long recovery.
As Kane struggles with both loneliness and poverty, he discovers that he will once again have a chance to perform with the Dolls in London. After overcoming his differences with former band member David Johansen, Kane has a successful performance. Upon his return to Los Angeles, Kane contemplates touring with the reunited Dolls

Born Fighters - 1979 Documentary w/ Nick Lowe, Dave Edmunds & Rockpile
quote:
This Granada TV documentary follows the recording process, circa 1978-1979, of Nick Lowe, Dave Edmunds & Rockpile. Two albums are being recorded simultaneously here: Nick Lowe's 'Labour of Lust' and Dave Edmunds' 'Repeat When Necessary'. It gives great insight into the process of recording and "getting" the right sound for radio. If you've never had any studio experience before, this video will give you that fly on the wall experience. Cameos by Graham Parker, Albert Lee and Huey Lewis.

The Billy Joel Doc may be the best of them all

There was one on either Netflix or Prime about the making of Dark Side of the Moon that was very good.

That was excellent. So much coming together in one year. Bowie, Black Sabbath, watching Sly Stone devolve into a drug induced hell. It's really very enlightening about the trends coming together.

Paralyzed with polio as a child, Brooklyn-born Jerome Felder reinvented himself first as a blues singer, renaming himself Doc Pomus, then emerged as a one of the most brilliant songwriters of the early rock and roll era, writing 'Save the Last Dance for Me,' 'This Magic Moment,' 'A Teenager in Love,' 'Viva Las Vegas,' and dozens of other hits. For most of his life Doc was confined to crutches and a wheelchair, but he lived more during his sixty-five years than others could experience in several lifetimes. AKA Doc Pomus brings to life Doc's joyous, romantic, heartbreaking, and extraordinarily eventful journey. In his later years, Doc was a mentor to generations of younger songwriters, and a fierce advocate for downtrodden rhythm and blues musicians. He wrote a thousand songs including some of the most recorded songs in the history of popular music - but his most lasting gift may have been his uniquely generous spirit. 'If the music industry had a heart,' the record producer Jerry Wexler remembered, 'it would be Doc Pomus.'Packed with incomparable music and rare archival imagery, AKA Doc Pomus features interviews with Doc's collaborators and friends, including Dr. John, Ben E. King, Joan Osborne, Shawn Colvin, Dion, Leiber and Stoller, and B.B. King. Passages from Doc's private journals are read by his close friend, Lou Reed. Doc Pomus' gripping life story makes for a powerful and lively film that introduces this unique American character to a new, much wider circle of admirers.
With his composer, Mort Shuman

The true story of Bobby Keys in his own words. Born in the same county as Buddy Holly (Lubbock County, Texas), Keys literally "horned" his way into hanging out with Buddy Holly and the Crickets at a very young age. Growing up on the road and in the studio, Keys was one of the music industries "go to" session players performing on hit records by The Rolling Stones, Delaney & Bonnie, Joe Cocker, Eric Clapton, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Elton John, and Harry Nilsson just to name a few.
Bobby Keys became close friends with Keith Richards and was often referred to as the "6th Rolling Stone". Life on the road with The Rolling Stones and their partying lifestyle was legendary, but took it's toll on Keys. After losing his role with the Stones due to an infamous bathtub incident filled with dom perignon, Keys was lost for a few years and hit rock bottom. Keith Richards finagled a Bobby return at a Stones rehearsal unbeknownst to Mick, a very loud discussion ensued, but Mick agreed for Bobby to resume his role as The Rolling Stones main sax man performing on Brown Sugar, Can't You Hear Me Knocking, Bitch, and so many other great Stones songs.
As Bobby states about music - "put horns on it and then it will rock"... and rock he did up until his untimely death in December 2014. Bobby Keys mark on the music industry and his soulfully brash and bellowing sax solos will be heard until the end of time. Knowing Bobby... they will go on beyond the end of time. The film includes exclusive interviews with Bobby Keys, plus music legends Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Ron Wood, Mick Taylor, Ian McLagan, Billy Gibbons, Jim Price, J.I. Allison, Joe B. Mauldin, Dr. John, Jim Keltner, Bobby Whitlock, Joe Ely and more
