Synopsis



'Up to Snuff' follows Walden's experience in the music industry in the 1960s and 1970s, immersed in the "sex, drugs and rock and roll" lifestyle of touring musicians. Walden became sober and transitioned into a composer, scoring music for television programs. The film looks at that his transition, with interviews with Walden's colleagues and collaborators, including Aaron Sorkin, Martin Sheen, Tom Arnold, Timothy Busfield, Lawrence O'Donnell, Joshua Malina, Fred Savage, Ed Asner, and musicians Eric Burdon, Steve Lukather, Tris Imboden, and Mike Post.
