Tonite Let's All Make Love in London
2.8
Peter Whitehead’s disjointed Swinging London documentary, subtitled “A Pop Concerto,” comprises a number of different “movements,” each depicting a different theme underscored by music: A early version of Pink Floyd’s “Interstellar Overdrive” plays behind some arty nightclub scenes, while Chris Farlowe’s rendition of the Rolling Stones’ “Out of Time” accompanies a young woman’s description of London nightlife and the vacuousness of her own existence. In another segment, the Marquess of Kensington (Robert Wace) croons the nostalgic “Changing of the Guard” to shots of Buckingham Palace’s changing of the guard, and recording act Vashti are seen at work in the studio. Sandwiched between are clips of Mick Jagger (discussing revolution), Andrew Loog Oldham (discussing his future) – and Julie Christie, Michael Caine, Lee Marvin, and novelist Edna O’Brien (each discussing sex). The best part is footage of the riot that interrupted the Stones’ 1966 Royal Albert Hall concert.

Red, White and Blues

Oct 03, 2003
Au cours des années soixante, le Royaume-Uni a connu une profonde révolution sociale. Londres, Liverpool, Birmingham, Manchester et Newcastle possédaient toutes leur propre scène musicale. Des musiciens de Belfast et Glasgow venaient à Londres pour prendre part à cette révolution musicale des clubs. A cette époque, le jazz traditionnel d'après-guerre et les mouvements de renouveau du folk ont constitué le terrain fertile qui a permis l'émergence d'un nouveau genre de musique blues, entièrement influencé par l'authentique black blues des Etats-Unis. Cette musique était nouvelle en ce que certains musiciens majeurs ont remodelé le blues américain d'une manière complètement personnelle pour l'adapter à l'éveil de la conscience du Royaume-Uni lors des sixties. Red, white and blues examine les circonstances de cette période de mutation.
