I recently watched Quiet Riot: Frankie Banali Story again and it gets a little better each time. I am looking for some new ones to watch -- especially on hard rock.
I hear Keith Richards's new one is decent (but meh...enough of him). The Amy Winehouse doc sounds intriguing.
What else ya got?

The Rush documentary was great. That and Pearl Jam 20 were both on Netflix. Both are worth watching if they're still on there.

Finally... I've been waiting for someone to start a music doc thread, so this one can be retired (the OP would never come back to change the thread title)
Anyway I've got a thousand YouTube links I can post over the next few years, if you'll just change the title of this thread by taking off the "on cable and/or Netflix"
We can start in... Where else?:
Walking To New Orleans (1985)
Very rare doc (never on DVD) hosted by Jools Holland of the band Squeeze (and later host of his own talk show on British TV). Shot on location in LA and featuring appearances by Fats Domino, Lee Dorsey, Allen Toussaint, Dr John, The Neville Brothers, and Johnnie Allan (singing "Promised Land").

If you like The Grateful Dead, there's a good one about Bob Weir. I can't remember the name.

Searching For Sugar Man (streaming free on dailymotion.cfom)
Summary:
Though he faded into obscurity in the U.S., an early '70s musician known as Rodriguez became a huge hit in South Africa and was widely rumored to have died. Two obsessed fans set out to learn the man's true fate.
This one won an Academy Award for Best Documentary IIRC

Netflix has a doc on Bob Marley that is really solid, especially the beginning of the doc which focuses on creation of the Wailers. Has great interview footage of Bob, Bunny Wailer, Lee Perry, etc.
Also the one on Levon Helm is worth watching. It's a little like the Keith Richards one in that it focuses on him when he's older, in the year just prior to his death, as opposed to a comprehensive look at his career with the Band- but it's still entertaining.

Soaked in Bleach was great and the History of the Eagles was good considering I hate the Eagles.

Just in time for Mardi Gras:
Piano Players Rarely Ever Play Together (1982) - Watch on YouTube
Piano Players Rarely Ever Play Together (1982) - Watch on YouTube
quote:
"Piano Players" is a 76 minute portrait of three great New Orleans pianists and how they influenced one another's music. It documents the best piano “professors” of the last three generations -- New Orleans’ keyboard aces Isidore “Tuts” Washington, Henry “Professor Longhair” Byrd, and Allen Toussaint -- as they played together for the first time in a rehearsal for a joint concert. The rehearsal turned out to be the ONLY time the three ever played together, because Professor Longhair died two days before the scheduled performance.
The documentary takes viewers through the very personal and sacred New Orleans tradition of a jazz wake and funeral procession for Professor Longhair, which was taped at the encouragement of his widow, Alice. Also included is the previously planned concert with Toussaint and Washington, who turned the event into a tribute to Fess.
Released to critical acclaim in 1982, "Piano Players Rarely Ever Play Together" is considered by many to be one of the most important and exciting explorations of New Orleans’ musical tradition ever made.

American Masters - Merle Haggard: Learning To Live With Myself (YouTube)
Might want to watch this ASAP, as it probably won't stay up long. It was uploaded to YT by the director shortly after MH's death.
