[From a July 15, 2016 Houston Press review of the soundtrack] by Chris Gray

http://www.houstonpress.com/music/fr...fy-etc-8570286

The soundtrack is as wonderful as you’d expect from a Crowe project, and the premise – like Spinal Tap couldn’t keep a drummer, the SHB can’t keep an opening act – has so far created well-used screen time for The Head & the Heart, Reignwolf and best of all Lindsey Buckingham, whose solo hit “Big Love” made a spot-on backdrop for the psilocybic misadventures of last week's guest star Rainn Wilson, as a haughty big-shot music blogger shot into mind-orbit (and humility) by an especially potent espresso. Roadies is a must-see for Cameron Crowe fans — a fun game is “spot the Pearl Jam reference/soundtrack song” — but really for anyone who has ever been lured into the bittersweet trap of loving something you know will eventually break your heart, such as television shows and in this case rock and roll itself.
