Seen most of these documentaries but the two that really stuck out for me were the Roky Erickson “You’re Gonna Miss Me” and the Minutemen “We Jam Econo”
One can only imagine what the Minutemen would sound like now if D.Boon’s life hadn’t ended so abruptly at 27yo. As a longtime fan, it was great to see all the footage I never thought existed.
As for the Roky Erickson movie, I got turned onto Roky via ANTiSEEN and have to say Roky has the strangest, yet alluring style of songwriting. His story is incredible and after seeing “You’re Gonna Miss Me”, almost anybody would be compelled to feel for the guy.
