Movies are for entertainment. Music is for entertainment. Even with today’s portable technology, you will get the most out of a movie, by sitting down and watching it. By that same standard, today’s technology allows us to take our music with us everywhere we go.
Movie soundtracks, allow us to listen to great playlists created by movie directors that we can take with us and listen to. They represent the original mixed tapes.

American Pop is an amazing journey through the family tree of four generations of a Russian Jewish immigrant family of musicians and songwriters as told through the american music scene. Family matters, heirlooms, relationships and music. In my opinion, this is the best movie following a family tree throughout generations that has ever been attempted. That is follows popular American music is an added bonus, but at it’s heart this film is about family.

Bob Dylan’s Like a Rolling Stone is making a comeback as an innovative interactive music video.
The concept is really simple, you’re watching TV and you have 16 channels available, but they are all different versions of Like a Rolling Stone by Bob Dylan, spoofing channels and shows all singing along in complete synchronicity.

Now, Hey Good Lookin’ just seems like piece out of time. Although the most recent Indiana Jones featured greasers this is at the other end of the spectrum. This movie is full of racial tension and sexual frustration. It’s a love story, an us vs. them story, and above all it’s a coming of age story about finding your way.
