Trivia
All 3 participants have featured in music from a James Bond opening credits. Jimmy Page reveals that he played on "Goldfinger (1964)" whilst The Edge and Jack White contributed title tracks to "GoldenEye (1995)" and "Quantum of Solace (2008)" respectively.

Goofs
The section where Jimmy Page is talking about his first electric guitar is prefaced with a title card labeled "Jimmy's Strat" and showing a Fender Stratocaster. However, the pictures accompanying his story show a young Jimmy Page with a guitar that is distinctly not a Stratocaster, but a Selmer Futurama.

Quotes
Jack White: Never wanted to play guitar. Ever. Everyone plays guitar. What's the point.

Crazy credits
"St. Vincent De Paul", a Detroit thrift store mentioned in the movie, is credited as "St. Vincent De Paul - Detriot", with "Detroit" misspelled.

Just play the guitar, no narrative needed!

1/15/18. I love electric guitar music but this rockumentary comes off being uneven in its approach. I loved when they played their guitars, but the narratives were not that enlightening. Oh well.
