The craft of rock music, exemplified by Fleetwood Mac


Many years ago I saw a televised program - probably VH1's "Behind the Music" - which included long interviews with the members of Pink Floyd explaining how they generated their music.   The method was an eye-opening contrast to the more prosaic production technique of recording a live performance.

The video above (via BoingBoing) takes the same approach with Fleetwood Mac.

  1. Re: Pink Floyd documentary: could that have been "Pink Floyd: Behind the Wall"? It's on Vimeo for sure, and probably YouTube as well.

    1. I'm not sure, Josh. It might have been more Dark Side than Wall, and it was in three parts. I lost it when out DVR malfunctioned. But I have good memories.
