Product description

They were one of the world's most beloved and hated rock bands. Celebrating the 25th anniversary release of their international smash hit, "My Sharona," "Getting The Knack" explores the group's dynamic and often controversial career via candid interviews with the original band, producers Mike Chapman and Jack Douglas, Sharona Alperin, (the inspiration behind their biggest hit), Steve Jones of The Sex Pistols, Rick Springfield, Elliot Easton of The Cars, Devo's Bob Mothersbaugh, comedian Weird Al Yankovic and many more. Narrated by Cherie Currie of The Runaways, "Getting The Knack" is augmented by scores of rare photos, previously unseen archival footage, and various Knack ephemera, all helping to provide a no-holds barred look at the rise and fall and ultimate resurrection of these quintessential power pop legends.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Knack The Knack The Knack
By Bruce Gary's drumstick on 17 January 2021
Great DVD wished it was longer,almost feel short changed.Interesting insight into a band that had it all then quickly lost it again.Bad management seems to be one of the main contributors to The Knack's downfall. Some of the highlights are the moments Bruce Gary is featured ,one of my favourite drummers.

Am glad I paid just over a tenner for what could have been more to this dvd,can't believe it's now worth more than £100!
