"Once Upon a Time in New York — The Birth of Hip-Hop, Disco & Punk” (2007).



Man, I wish PBS would do documentaries like this. This BBC 4 documentary focuses on the birth of Hip Hop, Punk, and Disco and how the three musical genres are very much trees grown from the same roots. Parts 2, 3, and 4 after the jump.

If I remember correctly, this documentary series had 10 parts and covered numerous subgenres of Rock.
