4. Now More Than Ever: The History of Chicago
I didn't expect a lot from that one, but found it compelling, Much of the band's early history was unfamiliar to me.

I'm Trying to Break Your Heart - Wilco
The five that come to mind for me in no particular order:
Almost Famous
High Fidelity
History of the Eagles
Mr. Holland's Opus (thanks @cyhiphopp for reminding me. The final scene always gets me)
Don't Look Back
Oooh, High Fidelity! Love that movie. I'm a pretty big Cusak fan in general but that one is great in particular. Great monologues from him.
Jack Black almost steals the show with his side kick role.
Just enough music to make it a music related movie as well.

The only thing in that movie that didn't do it for me was the girlfriend role. Total casting misfire.
But any time I hear Walking on Sunshine I immediately think of Jack Black spinning around that crappy little record store trying to pump his friends up.
I don't see a lot of them, and too many are disappointing in some respect, but a few I've enjoyed over the years and recently:
King Creole
Hard Day's Night
Blues Brothers
Spinal Tap
Concert for George
Love and Mercy (about the making of Pet Sounds)
I just saw it this weekend. I probably need to let it process a bit more but it would be really close to being in my top 5.Very surprised that Bohemian Rhapsody did not make anyone's list. Based on how successful and good it was. And how recent it is.

No mention of A Mighty Wind? What the **** is wrong with all of you?

https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/jesus_christ_vampire_hunterWhat in baby Jesus' name is Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter?
That also made me think of Jesus Christ Superstar, which while not one of my all time favorite music related movies, is quite good.

I'm not qualified to assess JC Superstar for its historic/thematic content, but it has quite a fewl good songs.
