The best documentaries to stream while in isolation

Fader made a selection of best music documentaries to stream while stuck at home (or staying at home at your own will, right!?!). There's the Rolling Stones classic 'Gimme Shelter'; 'A Life in Waves' about Suzanne Ciani - one of the single most influential cultural figures to emerge in the past century; 'Baltimore, Where You At?' about the city's club scene; 'What Happened, Miss Simone?' about Nina Simone as an artist and an activist; 'Everybody in the Place' about UK rave culture; a purely biographical 'Matangi/Maya/M.I.A.'; 'A Band Called Death' about three Afro-American brothers from Detroit playing punk way sooner than Bad Brains, but who never saw much success because of their name; 'Bad Rap' about representation in hip-hop.
