The film of almost the same name, Melody Makers, directed by Leslie Ann Coles, gives the writers and photographers of the magazine's golden era a chance to tell the stories behind the stories. Dec 17, 2019 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review…

Although a tad threadbare in the talking-head department (here comes Eric Burdon, again), this cheerful history of the British music weekly Melody Maker has enough inside dope to maintain interest. Jul 30, 2019 | Full Review…

The entire documentary plays like a trailer for itself, speeding through everything so quickly as though it's afraid we'll get bored and change the channel. Jul 12, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…
