ALWAYS MAGIC IN THE AIR: The Bomp and Brilliance of the Brill Building Era
Just as ‘The Last Party’ caught Britpop in the 90s, and ‘Easy Riders’ and ‘Raging Bull’ portrayed Hollywood in the 70s, so ‘Always Magic in the Air’ brilliantly captures the sweet, baby-boom music scene of New York in the 60s.
