Are you currently watching any Rock, or Metal videos? - Beach - 16-08-2009
I'm having another look at a the video of Paul Rodgers Live in Glasgow from 2007.
Great stuff for a bloke like me who grew up listening to bands like FREE, BAD COMPANY, ZEPPELIN, DEEP PURPLE and the many other great Rock bands of that era! :wink:

Last weekend, BBC4 broadcast a series of docs about Fleetwood Mac.
We've watched a couple of them, and they've been excellent. The first was an in depth profile of Peter Green called Man of The World. Really enjoyed it's sympathetic approach to Greens' trials & tribulations, and made me want to explore more early F Mac.
The second was a Rock Family Trees programme which managed to cram the whole F Mac history into 50 minutes, which is no small feat. Some hilarious interviews concerning the fights & tantrums...

Among the old VHS tapes that I am converting to DVD is the one that I am currently burning, having already converted it to 'divx' after having 'topped & tailed' it.
I am now using a program called ConvertXtoDVD to convert and burn it to DVD with automatically inserted chapters and a menu and will be able to watch it at my leisure after that.
This was a night of celebration for was, at the time, the twentieth anniversary of Fillmore West in San Francisco and featured many of the artists who'd performed there in the Haight Ashbury Era, including Joe Cocker, The Chambers Brothers, John B. Sebastian & Steve Boone (from The Lovin' Spoonful), Paul Butterfield and many others. A great gig and great fun for those who were there on the night! :tongue:

Blu-Ray disc of The Band's farewell gig at Winterland SF.
The Band plus a cast of dozens rip it up in fine style.
Doesn't get much better than this...

Indeed Rodders.
There's a short documentary as an extra on the disc I have, in which Robbie Robertson & Martin Scorsese discuss the difficulties encountered in making a film of a live gig.
The plans Scorsese had in advance for lighting & camera cues were amazing. Unfortunately live performance often doesn't conform to tight time schedules, so he found himself winging it a bit.
F'rinstance, the footage of Muddy Waters is almost entirely shot from one camera, as some of the cameramen were taking a break, and all but the one used were changing film. Scorsese thought he'd completely missed Muddy !!
