Customer Ratings & Reviews

I grew up listening to the music. I enjoy Martin Scorsese and Mick's input is clear. Some of the story / scenes are a bit harsh, but the story wraps up nicely by the conclusion of season one, which is good because it was not renewed. This is not something all would enjoy - so I would selectively recommend to friends / colleagues. BTW - first bought a Blue Ray that did not play / was defective.

Fantastic HBO show about a fictitious record company in the early to mid 1970's . The cast is great as are some of the rock stars that are portrayed here . Great plot with interesting stories that hook the viewer quick . Sadly this truly entertaining show was surprisingly cancelled by HBO after one season but the first season on blu-ray or DVD is an excellent addition to anyone's collection !

The series is a good representation of the music industry in the early 1970s. It starts with the actual economics of the industry and moves into the stagnation that developed by the seventies. The series is focused on one label in New York City music scene. As the series progresses, it concentrates on the label's primary owner and his personal and professional relationships.

It's too bad "Vinyl" didn't get a chance to expand on a fascinating story. Bobby Cannavale is perfect as the music-and-drug-obsessed record man, and production values are first rate. True, the drug thing does take over all too often, but the ambitious series holds up to multiple viewings. Looks good and grimy on Blu-ray. Sound is okay if not exceptional.

An interesting drama series depicting a struggling record company through the early 70's. I really liked the mix of fictitious characters used with real musicians of that time. Jagger does an excellent job as music producer for the show. Just sorry there isn't going to be a second season.

Vinyl is a mini series directed by Martin Scorsese about the record industry in 1973 The show involves with a failing record company and what is being done to try to salvage to save int. It shows the under belly of the industry that was involved at that time. Recommended

Terrific program, excellent representation of that time period. A mix of actual performers from that time and actors playing their parts. The group performing as the Velvet Underground were particularly dead on. Technically the audio and video are outstanding.

Vinyl shows another interesting side to the music industry and the birth of several music styles. Inside the record company, powers clash and scramble to stay relevant in the music biz. The series fails when it tries to mimic artists we already celebrate but succeeds when it creates new material.

this miniseries is a gritty realistic look at the music industry over a period of years it gets the details right the fashions cars music the acting is uniformaly great the directings excellent

I don't have HBO (but I have to get it again) and did not see this series that so many were talking about. If you love music---PURCHASE THIS!!!!! EXTREMELY ENTERTAINING AND GREAT ACTING!!!!

Not sure why HBO would pull this show. It was a very entertaining show. Especially if you like music. I hope Netflix or some other network picks it up. Glad to get the Blu-Ray.

Record Industry in the late 60's , early 70's this series to it to a different level. HBO cancelled the series. It left alot of questions for fans of the show!

It's a shame they didn't renew this series for a 2nd season. The acting was great, the backdrop of 70's NYC music set quite a stage for this series!

As an avid fan of all HBO shows I bought this without question. The show was good and worth the purchase price. Filmed a little differently than most traditional HBO shows.

This was a very cool season of rock and roll in the record industry! Enjoy loud and in stereo! Too bad season 2 didn't happen!

I loved this show. It feels authentic, and the music is good. Too bad it got cancelled. Excellent picture, and cool extras.

Finally bought the first season of Homeland as recommended by brother. Already on third disc and very pleased with the acting. My fiancé loves it.

A well acted and directed show that never really got a chance to really get going. Shame they cancelled it after one season.

This was a very nostalgic series. My only disappointment was it only ran one season.

This show is fantastic. The characters are great. It's a shame the show got cancelled.
