4/10
Way too uneven
12 June 2021
The concept is interesting, the music is great, but it feels like the creators had to deliver a certain number of episodes, so it became a free-for-all. They just can't seem to pick a lane. Let's do a documentary on Rolling Stones, let's do some historical context, let's do some social commentary, let's do one about black people. There's no natural flow or consistency there. It's not a coherent body of work consisting of 8 episodes, it's a collection of 8 episodes loosely held together by the fact that it's 1971. Some of them are great, some miss the mark so widely it's painful to watch.

Admirable effort, mediocre result. Definitely better than nothing, but so much wasted potential.
