Good But Certainly Very Flawed
Enjoyable documentary
Famous Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler went to Nashville, Tennessee in his late 60's to record a solo country album and put on several live shows by himself as a means of keeping his passion for music alive. Director Casey Tebo, who openly admits that he's a longtime friend of Tyler and hence has a definite bias, not surprisingly presents a loving rosy portrait of Tyler that does lay on the various testimonies from assorted people about Tyler being a nice guy a bit thick, but fortunately compensates for this with a wondrous wealth of dynamic and exciting live concert footage: There's no denying that Tyler is a true rock star who really knows how to work a crowd and put on a hell of a show, plus his back-up group the Loving Mary Band are a super tight and on the money bunch who fire on all cylinders throughout. It's a genuine treat to see Tyler singing and performing with so much joy, energy, and passion. Moreover, Tyler comes across as a truly funny, passionate, and charismatic guy who's definitely worthy of a documentary. So overall this doc makes for a fun and satisfying watch.
