DOCUMENTARY PREMIERE: Part 2 of 2. I really, really enjoyed the first part of this documentary, which is all about the music and culture emerging from a particular Los Angeles suburb. Stephen Stills and Peter Tork were roommates. The Mamas and the Papas, as well as Crosby, Stills and Nash, teamed up and hung out here. Last week, we learned how Alice Cooper got his big break auditioning in the Laurel Canyon basement studio of Frank Zappa, and toured the hilltop suburban stretch where Turtles and Monkees once roamed as neighbors. And tonight, we cover even more ground, starting with Linda Ronstadt, and how she encouraged her backing band to leave the nest and fly. Which they did – as The Eagles.
