So, you just binged Becoming Led Zeppelin on Netflix and now you’re walking around your house like Jimmy Page with an air guitar. Same. There’s something about that electrifying mix of backstage chaos, iconic riffs, and leather-clad rebellion that just gets the blood pumping. But don’t stop there. If you’re hungry for more rock-fueled docu-dramatics, Netflix is loaded with killer content to keep your inner rock god well-fed. Here are eight must-watch rock documentaries that are guaranteed to blow your mind—and possibly your speakers.

1. What Happened, Miss Simone?
Nina Simone might not be hard rock, but her intensity? Off the charts. This doc is a raw, soulful dive into genius, pain, and protest.

2. The Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese
Half concert, half fever dream. Scorsese and Dylan join forces for a trippy, off-beat journey through Dylan’s 1975 tour. Spoiler: it’s magical chaos.

3. Echo in the Canyon
Get nostalgic with Jakob Dylan (yes, that Dylan) as he explores the Laurel Canyon scene of the ’60s that birthed the California rock sound.

4. ZZ Top: That Little Ol’ Band from Texas
Beards, blues, and badassery. This documentary goes behind the shades and into the unlikely rise of a band that brought Texan swagger to the charts.

5. This Is Pop
This isn’t just rock—it’s the full pop evolution. But rockers will love the behind-the-scenes stories of genre-blending and chart-busting revolutions.

6. Miss Americana
Taylor Swift’s journey might be more pop than punk, but the rock ‘n’ roll attitude is real. She bares it all in this sharp, intimate doc.

7. Remastered: Devil at the Crossroads
The mysterious life and legacy of Robert Johnson—aka the man who allegedly sold his soul to play guitar like no other—is gothic, gritty, and haunting.

8. Woodstock 99: Peace, Love, and Rage
Spoiler: it’s not the summer of love. This fiery doc unpacks how a festival meant to honor Woodstock’s legacy spiraled into one of rock’s darkest moments.

So if Becoming Led Zeppelin lit the fire, these docs will keep the amps turned up. Grab your leather jacket, dim the lights, and press play. Rock history is waiting—and Netflix is your backstage pass.
