I had already seen this documentary several times before ordering it. Rodney is one of the most interesting characters you will ever come across. I love him to death and I hope to meet him someday. Plus, there's a lot of David Bowie content and that's never a bad thing!

A great look into LA rock and roll history

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2016

Verified Purchase

Watched it following Bowie's death as he is featured. Surprised and delighted by the film itself. A great look at a rock and roll kingmaker and his reign over the rock scene from the 70s through the 90s. Rather than just a rose-tinted celebration of fame, there is a plaintive quality to the movie, which documents his odd relationships and is pervaded by the theme of mortality that hovers over everything. He seems to be the "most famous nobody" in LA, and there's something really sad about that even though he's chosen that life. One to watch.

The CD arrived 2 days after ordering! That was really appreciated because it was a gift to a friend who is a Video buff. She has wanted a copy of "Mayor of the Sunset Strip" for a long time. Thought I'd surprise her with it. She enjoyed it immensely.
It was new, but she felt it had been reproduced a few times from another CD. She is happy to add it to her collection.
Thank you.

How many rock personalities can say they hung out with all four beatles,was the double for Davey Jones,was present at David Bowie's first L.A. gig,got Elvis to come to his club,gave Robert Plant competition with women,and introduced such acts as Blondie,The Sex pistols and even Coldplay to fm radio? The answer,only one....Rodney Bingenheimer! This documentary traces the life of the famous Los Angeles DJ from his childhood years to the early days in the music scene to the glam rock days when he once owned one of L.A.'s most hottest club in the 1970's to his present days as one of KROQ (Los Angeles) radio's most loved Discjockeys. With footage,music,and interviews of artists from the 1960's to the present,this DVD is recommended to all rock n roll lovers and historians. Rock on!!!!!!

A tribute to Rodney

Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2012

Verified Purchase

I have seen this movie once and had to buy it for myself. What an excellent tribute to an amazing individual. This documentary takes you on the journey of Rodney's illustrious career as well as his personal history. I have met Rodney many times while gorwing up in Los Angeles. This movie is a perfect portrayal of the incredible individual Rodney is. His passion for music is inspiring. But most impressive about Rodney is how humble he is. For the lenghth of time he has been in the business and the amount of famous folks he has encountered, one would be jaded. This film shows Rodney for who he is. He is legend in my book. Thanks for the outstanding tribute to such a fine individual!
