    I’ve really never …
    I’ve really never liked it when concerts were filmed like this. Minimal footage of the bands, and its always focused on the frontman’s face. Thats one of the reasons I think that most Jimi Hendrix concert footage was always so dissapointing. Amazing music, fiming.

    On another note, amazing songs (especially You Can Call Me Al!)
