    The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, and Muhammad Ali – not a bad selection, right?

    There are a number of superb doccies around at the moment (that Diego Maradona one looks like a winner), and we’re going to have a quick look at three more options for you to add to your list.

    To start, there’s one member of the Rolling Stones you may not have heard too much about. Yes, Keith and Mick are the headline grabbers, but Bill Wyman knows a thing or two.

    With the write-ups from Rolling Stone magazine, get ready for…

    The Quiet One

    Once upon a time, Bill Wyman traveled the world, played before millions of people in the world’s greatest rock & roll band and enjoyed the, shall we say “perks” of the touring musician’s life. He also kept a fairly comprehensive archive of his misadventures as a postwar British kid and a member of the Rolling Stones.

    Now, thanks to this doc, you get to tag along on his trip down memory lane, complete with vintage footage and famous talking heads.

    The “perks” – pretty sure we all know what that means.

    Here’s the trailer:

    This opens in cinemas on June 21.

    Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story By Martin Scorsese

    Next up is your man, Bob Dylan, as chronicled by one of the most famous directors of all time:

    He’s already covered the moment that Dylan went electric — now Martin Scorsese takes on the Rolling Thunder Revue, the legendary 1975-1976 tour featuring King Bob, Joan Baez, Roger McGuinn, T-Bone Burnett, Mick Ronson, Sam Shepard, Alan Ginsberg and a lot face paint and masks.

    Finally, someone has figured out how to put all that Renaldo and Clara footage to good use! If it’s half as exciting as this trailer, this may be the music documentary to beat this year.

    Yes please!

    June 12 is the date to keep an eye on.

    Pivoting from music to boxing for the final trailer (even though this man loved the sound of his own voice as much as any crooner out there), there’s a new Muhammad Ali two-part doccie.

    What’s My Name: Muhammad Ali’

    All Ali’s fights are there, from The Thrilla In Manilla against Joe Frazier to The Rumble In The Jungle against George Foreman – the world’s most-watched live television broadcast at the time – to his fight as a 38-year-old against his former sparring partner Larry Holmes, who wept after beating his idol on a technical knockout.

    What’s My Name? also covers Ali’s links to The Nation of Islam, his refusal to fight in the Vietnam War, and his battle with Parkinson’s later in life, as well as lighter moments, like when he recorded with Sam Cooke, or when his mother talks about how his boxing career began when he accidentally knocked her tooth out with one of his first punches as a toddler.

    In other words, essential viewing for any Ali fan:

    This one is available to watch now on Showmax – just sign up for their free 14-day trial and get stuck in.

    I reckon that’s enough to see you through for a few days.
