He was much hotter in the 90s. (see: “One Headlight” video) Seeing my first celebrity crush in his 50s makes me feel like I have one foot in the grave.
On the last question asked... the reason that the Laurel Canyon scene of the 60's was focused on "Folk-Rock" was because they ALL were EX FOLK musicians..McGuinn, Crosby Gene Clark, Joni Mitchell.., John Phillips, Mama Cass etc they had all been working FOLK musicians before the Beatles hit...
This documentary is fabulous! Watched this on Netflix, and have now downloaded your versions of these amazing songs. This was the period of music that defined my teenage and young adult years. I’ve met many of the individuals in this documentary (Eric Clapton, Finona Apple, Steven Stills, etc.), and it is hard to imagine them coming to California as “kids,” not knowing that they would become world icons of music. I didn’t know Jakob was Bob Dillon’s son; but after watching for 1/2 the documentary, figured that kind of talent was genetic, so I read his biography on Wikipedia. Thank you for this great piece of music history.
What about Dylan, I know he wasn't part of the Laurel Canyon thing but when you talk about the beginning of Folk Rock and writing poetic and deeper/angry lyrics to songs and you don't mention the Messiah you have left out a major essential to the theme of this documentary
The movie is great . This interview was a little dry . Jacob looks like he’s hating every second up there . But in the movie he is like a kid in a candy store . The movie was fun and reminiscent of a great time and era .
The interviewers opening line- ' are there other ones of them '..another example of American culture- intelligence lack of care for accuracy & oppropiatness going south
prior to that scene was a show called Hootenanny around 1962-1963 kind of a folk music revival show.This show probably inspired all these guys,myself included.It inspired to learn how to play the guitar.
I really liked this documentary as its the music from my age. I thought Jacob did an excellent job interviewing various musicians with a low key attitude. The part I couldn't fathom is the occasional appearance of Gary Lockwood driving his MG (or Morgan) around seemingly pursuing someone. Gary was in Star Trek episode "Where no man has gone before" aired in 1966. Was there any association??
Did you get your question answered? If not here it is a year later :). They are scenes from the 1969 movie Model Club and that inspired this documentary.
I think that is a "blindspot" of Jakob's. At 16:36, this interviewer actually asks about a comment by Crosby that Dylan went electric in part because he was inspired by the Byrds. Neither Andrew nor Jakob seemed to recall that comment at all.
These people were not income generating acts yet. In fact, this was the incubator that formed said acts. That being said, it amazes me how there is never a mention of how rent was paid. You know, like regular life.
It was brave of him to go into the business. He was born with a ridiculous standard of ‘success’. Two Grammys and a quadruple-platinum, sure, but his dad has _10_ Grammys, and more “Best Of” albums than the Wallflowers have top 10s. Edit: of course, comparing their looks and voices, Jakob comes out firmly on top.
all second division bands.....neil young was 4 x more talented than the cringeworthily self-regarding CSN...BUT HEY LET'S ENDLESSLY COMMEMORATE AND GILD THE MYTHOLOGY...
saw dylan 2X, met him once when we cut class to go to the hotel (1977?) where he was staying to stalk him…and there he was, in the cafe! 4 college girls paid homage for a couple minutes (we were polite, didnt want to intrude. too midwestern inexperienced to flirt or anything); he was very gracious. And when Jakob started selling albums; I bought those too. I own this one as well! Love this documentary. I spent my wintery childhood wishing I lived in L.A. …Now I do.
Check out my ( new ) review of this excellent documentary here: ( creativetechnerds.jimdo.com/echo-in-the-canyon/ ) Perhaps Andrew will follow-up "Echo" with a documentary on the "Psychedelic" music scene ( -a logical progression from the mid-60's "California sound" that ended up influencing bands as far afield as England's Pink Floyd and Hawkwind ).
To say that Arcade Fire has had any sort of cultural impact is absolutely laughable. This guy must be a huge fan of them. There's so much media, and there isn't MTV anymore, the internet has changed the game. Everything is all nichey now.
I really wanted to like this movie, but it just missed the mark in so many ways. It had all the ingredients to be good, but it just didn't come together right. Jakob Dylan showed no enthusiasm and offered no insightful narrative. There was also a disconnect between the newer artists and those from the 60's. Too bad.

Off topic, I know but God Jakob Dylan is gorgeous ❤️❤️🤤🤤
Only reason im watching
His Mom is pretty
He was much hotter in the 90s. (see: “One Headlight” video) Seeing my first celebrity crush in his 50s makes me feel like I have one foot in the grave.
12:25 Thank you for asking that question about Jade. Amazing voice and control!

Dylan!

I agree. I think perhaps the one artist whom Jakob was too nervous to speak with was probably his father?
I think Jakob had his fill of this interviewer in the first five minutes. I sure did. It seemed Jakob was ready to leave.
Tried to watch it but the interviewer has to be one of the most annoying people I've ever heard. Click.
The movie is great .

Jacob looks like he’s hating every second up there .

Movie should have been better. No Joni Mitchell. No Doors. Jakob Dylan is the Perry Como of modern music.
Great film, great music, excellent interviews and truly brilliant tribute performances. Such a great achievement.

Gah! How old does he (the interviewer) think these artists are? “ … surprised at how much they remembered?” Really.

Jakob's father was there ;)

I thought it was weird Jakob never mentioned his dad in the film

Reminds me of the MOTOWN documentary. Same style.
Great movie but it’s weird Jakob wouldn’t mention his dad in it
that's because his dad was on another level, and saw no need to fraternize with those tryhards. he was separate from them, off on his own...
It IS weird, because the Byrds and Dylan were in each other's pockets for a time. Guess it's because Bob never lived in the Canyon.

life wasn't always the way it is now.
They all come from families with means, 'hippies' were not poor kids.
Wow it must be kinda of wired. Being a songwriter and also being the son of the greatest songwriter of all time.

Ahh! Nostalgia! Back before the Wall Street criminals devoured everything!!
BTW, who came up with these questions?

Great film but this interviewer is talking about these "older" artists as if they're ancient!
The older he gets the more he looks like his daddy. *_wince_*
Edit: It makes the celebrity crush I had on him in the 90s seem almost like sacrilege.

Rob Hansen I had the same issue, I really enjoyed what the artists had to say, especially Crosby, but Jakob seemed uninterested somehow
Watched it last night. Really good.
YEP..SAW IT...NICE JOB, JAKOB...ANDREW, & GROUP...
She an I get the album .?
They forgot Joni Mitchell, Frank Zappa, Jim Morrison, The Monkees.
In another interview, Dylan explains why he focused on the musicians that he did. In part because he was looking at groups, not solo artists.
bell yeah The Doors wasn't a band right.
@@jeffrice4713 I don't think The Doors were part of the scene that this film is focused on.
They’ll make another one, trust me
Lousy interviewer, imho. Asking some lame questions.
This interview convinced me to skip the documentary.
it's much better to watch the doc FIRST, then watch the interview.
I just got through this doc in about 30 minutes (I fast forwarded whenever Jakob Dylan opened his mouth)
The performances are ruined with autotune
