Echo in the Canyon

"For rock 'n' rollers of all ages, it's mandatory viewing."

"Consistently amiable, if a bit wandery..."

"Because there isn’t quite enough of the original music, either informally played or in classic concert footage, this can’t quite go down as one of the truly great rockumentaries, but for anyone who formed their musical tastes around these big talents, this is a delightful wallow."

"The delight of Echo in the Canyon is in the delicious details its subjects impart."

"By keeping things short, sweet and dutifully tuneful, Echo in the Canyon is like the doc version of one of the period’s sonic nuggets, leaving you with a peace/love/understanding high and a desire to break out the vinyl for more of the same."

"Echo in the Canyon appears all too content in banking on our nostalgia for the formidable roster of artists it has assembled, relying solely on our familiarity with their work to keep our attention rapt."

"Rich with revealing observations and engaging anecdotes, Slater’s documentary skirts the nostalgia trap by entertainingly connecting with an impressive lineup of contemporary singer-songwriters referencing the influential '60s pop style with their own releases."

"Echo in the Canyon offers a richly evocative and star-studded overview of the 1960s Laurel Canyon music scene."

"I have a feeling Echo in the Canyon will be watched for decades into the future as the essential document of a very specific time and place that changed music forever."
