"No Tele For you." - The Tele Nazi
Ha! Tele-ish now inbound.
I'm not sure of it's availability. I heard it is on netflix.
I do know it is on thepiratebay.
I think that just the Carol Kaye parts alone make this documentary worth watching. You get to really appreciate how she created new bass lines that no one else thought of.
I checked Netflix and it's not there ...yet.
