This article traces the whole history of this --from the recording of it 30 years ago to how Kurt Cobain, Sofia Coppola and others came to love it. Plus the writer catches up with Zebraman and others from the film tody, to see what they're up to now and gets them to look back

more street team work:
In NYC Friday June 17
To celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of this cult landmark, Anthology Film Archives will present HMPL and other Krulik chronicles, including his latest, Led Zeppelin Played Here (2014), a deep dive into an apocryphal 1969 performance by the blues-rock quartet at a rinky-dink community center in a D.C. exurb. Krulik will be in attendance for all the screenings, his avidity for eccentric enthusiasts undimmed.
