Fans of the documentary and the many featured artists shared their love for 'Laurel Canyon' on Twitter. "I’m watching Laurel Canyon on Epix. I can never recommend a series more. It was the birth of everything music before the music died," said a fan while another wrote, "Seeing everyone come together In the community is f**king awesome everyone on laurel canyon and Osborne in unity (sic)."
"At the end of the laurel canyon doc. they showed a bunch of pictures of the bands and they all looked so happy and it just seemed so great to live there cause you could literally be up at 3 am and walk over to your neighbors and just play music and it’d be okay (sic)."
One fan said, "If you get a chance watch “Laurel Canyon” on EpixHD. So much great music and memories of my youth: groups I saw at the Ash Grove and The Troubadour growing up." Another shared, "Watched 'LAUREL CANYON' & loved it. Features the Who's Who of late '60's early 70's Rock & Roll. Real star was the 'Troubadour' club in Hollywood. This was just before Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, David Crosby and Steve Martin made it into the big time & I was there digging it."
Other comments included, "I started watching the Laurel Canyon docu on Epix last night. It’s shot beautifully, very straightforward I am really enjoying it. Did you know Peter Tork of the Monkees was a nudist? Neither did I LOL. He was also Stephen Stills' roommate up in Laurel Canyon" and "If u are a child of the 70s, watch the new doc series, Laurel Canyon. Reminds u of 3 things: 1. Coolest f**king place/time ever 2. The US goes through craziness and we grow from it 3. We need new music and art right now."
