LOST - SEASON 1 - ***
Highly recommend. The 2-hour pilot looks like a feature and would probably have done well on it's own, a la the way Twin Peaks released it's pilot overseas with a tacked on ending.
MEATLOAF: BAT OUT OF HELL - ***
This isn't really a "behind the music" productions, but more of a look back at the impact the album had minus all the drama. The really interesting part is when producer Todd Rundgren fades in and out on some tracks and allows the listening to hear just how layered some of the songs were. Meatloaf does the same himself but mostly just sings over stuff, which became annoying. I would really be interested in a version of this album sans vocals to allow Jim Steinman's score to come through.
