It's now 2024 and I just bought Almost Famous on 4k blu ray extended edition. This is one movie that gets better with age. The best R&R movie ever made. Cameron Crowe nailed every scene and the time line in this movie perfectly. Thank you Cameron for this brilliant masterpiece.

The actors are not the talent playing the music, the guitar playing of russel hammond (who was played by Billy Crudup) is done by Mike McCready (from Pearl Jam), ex Heart guitarist Nancy Wilson (Crowe’s wife) plays rhythm guitar for the group. Peter Framptom wrote much of the music itself with Cameron Crowe. Great actors but they are not actually playing.

The touches seem just right for the era: the band's from the Midwest (the center of rock in America at the time), the drums and guitar licks are exactly what a typical player then would do, the omnipresent Les Paul (Fenders were kind of out at that time), singer looking like Purple-era David Coverdale, and the band looks cool, but still a little green- the guitarist hasn't got his style down yet, he looks like he could be in Poco or Bread.
