Product Information
After a successful tour across the United States in 1969, the Rolling Stones gave a free December concert at Altamont Speedway in California with the Grateful Dead (not seen performing), Ike and Tina Turner, Jefferson Airplane, and the Flying Burrito Brothers (all seen performing one song each). The poorly planned show was fraught with problems from its inception. The band unwisely selected the Hells Angels motorcycle club to provide security, and after the pre-existing chaos was fuelled by very visible alcohol and drug abuse, the bikers resorted to violence to keep the stoned, restless, and often naked crowd in line. The result: dozens of injuries and the on-screen stabbing of a young African-American man (during 'Sympathy for the Devil,' no less) by one of the concert's 'staff security.'Product Identifiers

Additional InformationThis documentary of the Rolling Stones' 1969 US tour has become a legendary, harrowing symbol of the tragic demise of the 'Peace and Love' era. After a successful tour across the United States, the Rolling Stones gave a free December concert at Altamont Speedway in California with the Grateful Dead (not seen performing), Ike and Tina Turner, Jefferson Airplane, and the Flying Burrito Brothers (all seen performing one song each). The poorly planned show was fraught with problems from its inception. The band unwisely selected the Hells Angels motorcycle club to provide security, and after the pre-existing chaos was fuelled by very visible alcohol and drug abuse, the bikers resorted to violence to keep the stoned, restless, and often naked crowd in line. The result: dozens of injuries and the on-screen stabbing of a young African-American man (during 'Sympathy for the Devil,' no less) by one of the concert's 'staff security.'<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>In a manipulative but effective move, the Maysles brothers and Charlotte Zwerin filmed Mick Jagger in the editing room witnessing the on-camera murder for the first time. But aside from that unexpected drama, the film also works as a rock-and-roll document, capturing the band at their most relaxed, intoxicating, and electrifying.

Gimme Shelter- Rolling Stones
A great DVD for Stones fans and other music fans. A recorded history lesson of the fantastic 1969 American tour of the States by the Stones with great concert shots at Madison Square Garden in New York . Also great details of the shambolic planning and organisation of the famed Altamonte concert renowned for the murder of one of the audience by a member of the Hells Angels "security" team. Great viewing.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Could have been so much better
If you want to hear the Stones sounding good in 1969 get a copy of 'Get Yer Ya Yas Out'. The recordings for the live album must have been heavily edited to make them sound so good compared with the performances on this DVD. If you want to know about the Altamont free concert tragedy read the published articles. The information given in this production is disjointed and poorly explained. If you want to see endless footage of a laconic Charlie Watts then buy this.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Good account of a disturbing event
Landmark event which ended the hippie period in music history. Music concert ended in disaster as a member of the audience is attacked by 'security' and fatally injured.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
