A very talented group. Some thoughts....


This film shows one of the effects of super stardom. What I took away from this film was, once they became mega rich and famous they became somewhat jaded and lost contact with what they had before...their great friendship.

Still, I was very impressed by their technical abilities in creating their music. They're extremely good at what they do...very good producers, arrangers, and songwriters. Anyone that makes it on the level they did deserves respect.

It's unfortunate that some people who are unreal talented and are fortunate enough to become extremely successful in the music industry can become miserable doing what they aspired to do from the beginning.

But it doesn't happen to all successful musical acts, Aerosmith for one. They've weathered all the ups and downs of success, failure, drugs, money, and all the other stuff that goes with it...while maintaining the original lineup for more than 4 decades. Somehow they managed to work through any difficulties they had and kept the group together.
