Right off let me say this. If you love Rock n Roll and if you care about the Rock n Roll ethos, it's mythology it's bad ass-ness, then you ought to watch Vinyl. It has plenty of all that. Yes, the series does possess some narrative hiccups, but by the end of the season they are being overcome. Enough that you feel that it deserved a second season. I mean they threw in gangsters, and drug addicts, and ratcheted up the tension, that its almost dissapointing to not see it through. Lastly, like firstly the music is so cool! Do you like cool music? Then Vinyl is an outlet. So, not 6/10 because it's better then 6. But not 8/10 because it hadn't quite reached there.
