Incredible! I hadn't seen anything (outside the actual film, "Gimmie Shelter"), that had put the Altamont affair into it's proper perspective, and as a companion piece to the movie, this documentary is required viewing, however painful the truth it tells is. And a special thank you to and for the involvement of those directly connected to the event... Mark Simon (USN, 1981-1989)

@cdog9559 10 месяцев назад

Mark thank you for your voluntary service USN ! Mine was early 70's USN took me all around . True this is a good companion to the actual film. There is floating around online a good clip of Garcia and Weir hanging out in either the Embarcadero section of Frisco or the heliport in Sausalito waiting to be wisked away to Altamont.

Yes I watched the film before I watched this. My step dad was there, he was coming back on a Greyhound bus from Oakland to Stockton, just back from Vietnam. Of course the bus couldn't make it thru so he got off, went to the concert, found some HA supporters he knew from Oakland to hang out with. What a way to come home. I had wanted to go to it so bad but there was no way my mom was going to let that happen. I was 15 at the time. This was not the spot to expect peace & love, not in the valley like that, not those times. That scene was already fading fast,

What the man said about the Stones' 1969 show in Los Angeles still being one of the best 50 years later: My wife and I saw them in 1989 in their one and only appearance in Upstate South Carolina, and I would lay odds that their 1989 show trumped the '69 one --- and that is saying a lot. Best band of all time, which is also saying a lot. Hoping the Stones are still here in 2069.

Everyone's body language during the Stones set at Altamont spoke volumes! I remember one scene from "Gimmer Shelter" in particular where Mick was singing, and standing on the stage to his right there was a Hells Angel with short hair just staring daggers at him! Just giving Mick real "go to hell" looks!

@DDEENY 10 месяцев назад

I know the scene that you're referring to. Altamont was an historic rock and roll tragedy, the Paradise Lost following Woodstock and the 1960's went out in a whimper. But it was no accident - it was caused by treacherous indifference translated to disorganization. Mick was either unwilling or unable to postpone the date so that it could be organized properly because of The Stones' committed tour schedule. (He'd also skipped Brian's funeral because he was scheduled to be on location in Australia for the filming of _Ned Kelly_ .) Ambition lends itself to ruthlessness. Part of the the lure of using The Hells Angels as security (although to their credit The Angels admitted that they weren't and didn't pretend to be a police force) was that they were hired cheaply with a U-Haul truckload of beer rather than money in the spirit of a "free" concert. By design the event was filmed and intended as a finale to The Stones' 1969 filmed tour documentary with hundreds of thousands of free stand-in actors. Of course, it would have been wise to cancel the concert altogether. Almost 10 years to the day following, The Who had their worst day when several people were trampled to death in Cincinnati due to a management failure of locking the arena doors until shortly before the beginning of a concert, and rather than having the fans trickle in, they rushed the door as soon as they opened. But that was purely a regrettable mistake in planning rather than a contrived event and The Who's management had nothing to do with that. Hard lessons learned, and life goes on. Thank you.

@impalaman9707 10 месяцев назад

@@DDEENY Everyone thinks that the 60s ended with Altamont, however, there were still what I consider very much hippie rock festivals that continued all through the 70s--notably Cincinnati, Isle of Wight, Atlanta--even the California and Texas Jams--I would consider very much in the tradition of Woodstock, and most of those were well organized and went down without a hitch, learning the lessons of both Woodstock and Altamont.

Also, the lame swiping at the Beatles, which they still do as skeletal old men after decades with half of The Beatles long dead, reveals the crippling insecurity that still points to the void at the band’s center.

There's a video of the Stones playing "Satisfaction" on Ed Sullivan where he screws up badly and noticeably several times-- not stopping at the breaks and then not coming back in and leaving Richards all alone to play the lead riff. It's hard to find the full performance on RU-vid-- there are several videos of it with those parts noticeably edited OUT, and others where the audio is overdubbed entirely, but if you can find the whole performance--OUCH !!

What a bunch of crap about the Stones being at the forefront of "resistance" (whatever that's supposed to mean anyway). They were always great followers of fashion: mod, hip, a touch of radical chic, disco, punk, gay chic, Jagger trying (awfully) to dance like Michael Jackson, etc. Casting Jumping Jack Flash as in any way political is absurd. Street Fighting Man is an obvious attempt to capitalise on the mood, but it doesn't say anything; in fact "what can a poor boy do except to sing for a rock and roll band" - gee, how revolutionary. It was all fashion driven by commercial interest.

Even though Taylor is a great guitar player I have to say that I prefer the material they made with Brian Jones still contributing. They made good albums after he left but I think they were a lot more predictable after Brian Jones left . The best songs they made from 62 -69 were better for the contributions Jones made to them. Marimbas , sitar, slide guitar, etc. Mick and Keith have been dismissive about what Brian meant to the group but I don't think they are being totally honest about it. Brian's peers outside of the group seem to have a totally different point of view about Jones and his talent than Jagger and Richards.

Stones (and lots of other people) thought "Hey, so many hippies in San Fran, let's have a groovy free concert." California (I grew up in L.A) can be a very violent and depressing place. Stones didn't know that. But the Dead knew it, those cowardly hypocrites took a helicopter ride back to the city as fast as they could. They must have figured (and they were right) nobody's here to see us, let's get the hell out of here. The Dead encouraged the Stones to hire the Angels, i've always thought that whole fiasco was the Dead's fault anyway.

The damn bikers were the only violence, and if they hadn’t been there none of this horrible stuff would have happened. It was heartbreaking to hear later that the young man was killed.

The Grateful Dead and the Stones and their management made some bad decisions regarding putting that thing on. Ironically the very people they opposed ( the cops) would’ve been a much better choice for security. They bought into a phoney baloney hippie fantasy.

I watched a documentary about the Hells Angels that mentioned Altamont (i can't remember the name). Basically, the Hells Angels wanted their lawyer, bail, damages, etc. costs that resulted from this disaster paid for by the stones. The stones said no. So, the HA made it a point to try and track members down. At one point, Jagger was on a yacht (i forget where. It was New York Hells Angels that went out, so i guess near there), and some HA's go out on a boat to try and get their money from Jagger on the yacht. Well, the seas got too rough for the boat the HA's were in, and they had to go back. Once Jagger heard about this, he sent the HA's all the money they were asking for. I believe it was either $50k or $100k? If you want to see Jerry Garcia and others perform for the HA's, look for a documentary on RU-vid called "Hells Angels Forever". It's a documentary made by the HA's in the 60s and 70s. He and others perform on a big boat to raise money. It's definitely a weird documentary. There are others too i can link.

If you read Selvin's book on Altamont, he goes into great detail about the vibe & mood from the show. It was really bad, as felt by Santana who withheld any of their performance to be shown from that day and how the Grateful Dead got the hell out of there completely...

@D-Fens_1632 10 месяцев назад

I second reading Selvin's book. I'm a giant Deadhead and have heard and read a hundred takes on Altamont from the Dead's camp and already knew a lot but that book is the definitive take on Altamont for me.

Don't know why Carlos Santana would withhold any of his performance at Altamont, unless *gasp* he was exaggerating about his performance there! According to the video I watched of him talking about that day...he says he thought it was one of their best performances, musical-wise, they ever did! But then again, this is him talking with 30-40yrs of retrospect, and realizing that Altamont was a cultural and historical event, and needed to add a "wow" factor about him for that day. Just like that story where his acid trip at Woodstock was so intense his guitar neck was moving "like a snake" and he was barely able to keep it together. Must have scored the best acid there! Did he come up with that in retrospect also? After realizing what a cultural milestone Woodstock was becoming?! The guy just seems to be one of those who always has one better than you, no matter the subject. He also pulls out the race-card when not needed. Don't like the guy much, as you probably can tell. Seems to hold himself with great importance. Google the video for yourself and see. Then you'll be wondering why they didn't release their whole show at Altamont.

I believe Mick Jagger's enthusiasm for the Devil was greatly diminished by Altamont, having Sum1 murdered in front of you and being Powerless over the crowd, I believe on some level Jagger felt impotent, which he was; Satan had the last laugh, or to quote Ozzy, "Satan laughing spread his wings ";

This isn't to say he's wrong in most of his story telling, but just keep in mind it's all second {or third, or fourth} hand. A "raconteur" indeed.

Tried everything else you mentioned, though. Loved H a little too much, lol. I kept a notebook of everything I tried, how much, trip reports, etc. Almost like an obsession. Next, I wanted to take samples of everything and keep them. I guess like a library. Ended up tossing what I had collected when sobriety kicked in.

I had to stop watching at 15 minutes after being forced to listen to how the Stones inspired “macho fighting” and how great it was that guys beat each other up at Stones concerts whereas the Beatles were fluffy stuffed animals. F off already - the Beatles were by no means a “safe” band and their influence is limitless - same with Brian Jones and The Beach Boys, which these idiots also dismiss. Sorry that you weren’t gifted enough as musicians to realize the opposite. So tired of the Stones and their endless pathetic hype (as elderly men they still want these myths recited), and their endless attempts to force comparisons to the Beatles. Everything claimed here about the Stones was said about The Doors a hundred times over. The Stones stole blues riffs from black musicians and added very little to the blues creatively speaking. They dressed up in the blues when they were thoroughly middle class London boys (the opposite of the working class Liverpudlian Beatles despite the Stones’ endless attempts to mythologize themselves) and played “black.” It’s so vacuous and the constant praising here just becomes empty hype. Also F The Stones for callously and lazily putting their own fans in such miserable and dangerous circumstances - and for running away from the mess they created. Hey as long as it sells records right Mick et al.?
