I love reading people complaining that something is too "woke"! As if being awake and AWARE is bad!
That said, the title of this is "The Year That Music CHANGED Everything". Which, to my sensibility, is about WHAT music changed and not necessarily about the music itself. If you need a deep dive into your favorite band or recording process, maybe go elsewhere. This is about culture.
Otherwise, this does a fairly good job of spelling out all the cultural shifts going on at the time. And, yes, it's definitely US-centric, and maybe they really shoulda made the title reflect that a bit. A documentary covering cultural changes in the entire world would take up many seasons!
Bottom line, it's entertaining and enjoyable. Nice to see some of the footage, etc.; but it's nothing great. You'd learn more about those cultural changes by doing deep dives into history books AND studying your favorite rock band of that era.
Good afternoon time killer.
