i got to watch this last night ....... yep the coming together of jimmy page/the edge and jack white .......... to discuss guitars and music....... ok lets start the review by saying that i was watching it not as a rock fan......... i kept turning down the soundtrack when they played cos it was too loud heheheh so that says it all.......... however it was a well done docci taking 3 muso's one from 70's fame one from 80/90's fame and one from the here and now and the result is an interested view on what inspired and still drives them......... for the rock fans a must see......... for the NON ROCK fans it's worth it to see jack white doing his retro blues....... impressive...... so my personal opinion,,,,,, i thought it was worth the watch ....... i must say the rock cuts were of no interest to me ...and i enjoyed the discussion and interview part of it more........... HOWEVER jack white has pricked my interest ........ the other two i could not hear again and not feel i'm missing out............ but jack whites anti technology approach really hit a spot with me.......... and i loved that scene of him recording that blues song with that battered old guitar ...it was authentic and wow he gets great tone outa his 'plastic " guitars and old pawn shop kay's ...... loved his attitude of even letting that kid kick his guitar and then encoured him to do it harder.......... so yeah jack white will befinietly be on my listening list ..... his whole attitude to making music is just awesome ....... not pretentious, not worried about gear and technology ...can take anything and get a fabulous tone outa it....... and he just drips with tone whatever he plays...... yeah so respect to both page and the edge they legends ... but not my scene.....but jack white to me stole the show.......... now does anybody know if he has recorded any blues albums ..... (we not talking white stripes cd's here) cos i sure hope he has or will in future.......

i like going back in time an hearing muso's describe their roots an how it all began and from that angle i enjyed the movie.. white not ever really been on my radar but i must say i was mesmerised ...

a good movie , worth the watch but prolly wont watch it again for a long long time.

It's a very enjoyable DVD, as stated before it's the DVD that got me into the white stripes. Jack White is very good.
Both the Edge and Jimmy page are great muso's and respect to them, but saying that Jack White stole the show.

As a foot note, after seeing U2 this weekend, you have to give it up to the edge for writing some very good rock anthems, hey you try write a song that 70000 people sing, hum and dance to, then we can talk ?
