I've been watching VH1 "Behind the Music" videos on YouTube
I love this series because they are all from my era. My quick and dirty impressions so far:
Journey: Steve Perry said he never really felt like part of the band. WTF. Also, Jonathan Cain was secure enough in himself to cry on camera about the little boy who died after they visited him in the hospital. I thought that was awesome of him.
Megadeth: Dave Mustaine sure had an issue with Metallica for a long time.
Metallica: I knew nothing about them. They put on a great show.
Melissa Etheridge: I had no idea she had two kids. She's very strong and very brave.
Woodstock: The financier guys were sure brave.
Anthrax: These guys have been through hell and back.
Judas Priest: I knew nothing about them. I was not aware how famous they were (ok ok, yes I'm clueless about heavy metal).
Doobie Brothers: Wow talk about lineup changes.
Red Hot Chili Peppers: Anthony Kiedis comes across as very intelligent and articulate. It's very touching how close the band members are to each other.
Styx: I was not overly sympathetic to Dennis DeYoung.
Darryl Hall and John Oates: I had not seen their MTV videos, which were described as not being very good. The VH1 guy's words, not mine. To me they were ok for 80's videos.
As I said, quick and dirty. Most enjoyable way to catch up on an artist's work quickly.
