Where Are You, Jay Bennett? Movie Reviews
A Latter Day Brian Wilson
Ask any Wilco fan what their favorite album by the band is, and you know they’ll say Being There, Summerteeth, or YHF. That, of course, is the Jay Bennett era.
Sadly, too many modern fans of Wilco (and music in general) have no appreciation for how talented Jay was. How influential. How creative. This film takes it upon itself to show you, to teach you. Consider it a Master Class in Jay Bennett appreciation.
Through countless interviews with family, friends, and colleagues – along with fantastic interviews with Jay himself – you get a full picture of his history, development, his ups and downs, his quirks and his generosity. But it’s not a false narrative. There’s no worshipping at the altar of a false messiah. The people who knew him best reveal the true picture of the man. He was complicated, sometimes difficult, obsessed with details, and sometimes had a bit of a kitchen sink approach to recording music.
Above all, you learn how Bennett worked so hard to be everything he could be to anyone who needed him. He’d wear as many hats as necessary. Like so many of us, he just wanted to be liked, appreciated, and most of all understood.
This documentary is NOT just for fans of Wilco. Any true music fan will love this film.
A Story That Needed To Be Told
Jay Bennett is one of the least known geniuses of popular music. His name should be mentioned in the same breath as Brian Wilson and Brian Eno, but he has been unfairly cast, by an earlier documentary film, as the necessary villain of the early Wilco story. A poignant, moving, celebration of a true innovator in music who tragically passed before his time. Where Are You, Jay Bennett? Is the product of 10 years of work, and it shows. I’ve just attended the world premiere and I can say, without doubt, that this is a story that needed to be told.
Great documentary
I saw the premier in Chicago and enjoyed the thorough, emotional filmmaking. Jay Bennett was a musical genius and the filmmakers did a great job showcasing his unique personality. Highly recommend this for Wilco fans or music fans in general.
