Something In The Water: A St. Louis Rockumentary looks at a scene that anyone who was around St. Louis in the ‘70s has to remember as an invigorating period for classic-rock fans. The new documentary looks back at the unique set of circumstances that electrified the music scene here in the late ’60s and early ’70s. The new film by Emmy-winning director Kathy Bratkowski chronicles the advent of free-form radio at stations such as Kshe, the storied concerts at the Mississippi River Festival (Mrf) and Superjam, and the area musicians who used St. Louis stages to reach a national audience. Featuring rare interviews, archived Mrf concert footage, and photos from the musicians themselves, Something In The Water is a funny, honest, and unique account of “ground zero for rock and roll,” as told by those who played a major role in the emergence of classic rock in St. Louis.

With a revised title, The Intouchables and an R rating (quoi?), the most successful French comedy in history arrives stateside Friday, June 1.
While not receiving as much praise as I had hoped, a quick coup d’oeil of critiques concede its appeal, despite a few exceptions, who shall heretofore be referred to as les détesteurs (haters).
Last December, I told you about how Variety’s Paris-based critic, got his culottes in a bunch as he raced to be first say “Uncle Tom” as if he were playing “Marco Polo” and would earn credibility making the reference as a non-black person. The...

Little River Band was the first Australian band to successfully conquer foreign markets from an Australian base.
Within eight months of their birth, Lrb had already scored three Australian Top 20 singles and two Top Ten albums. In 1976, after their self-titled debut album was released in the USA, the long grind of 13 Us tours in eight years had begun.
By 1982 they became the only act - from anywhere - to have a top ten Us single for six consecutive years.
Headlining their own major shows in America, and touring internationally with the likes of the Doobie Brothers, Supertramp, America, and the Eagles was a huge learning curve that honed Lrb into one of the finest live bands in the world.
Record success ran alongside - total record sales around the world have eclipsed the 25 million mark. 16 hit singles by 1985, as well as gold, platinum, and multi-platinum album sales awards. All-told Lrb...
