Documenting the opening day of London’s infamous Wembley Stadium, this show is a wonderful collection of performances from every rock ‘n’ roll icon that you should know and probably don’t.
Featuring Bo Diddley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Bill Haley and way more, it’s like the Lollapalooza or Warped Tour of the mid-70s, but way fuckin’ cooler.
Keeping in mind that cameramen took their documentary education from Woodstock, one has to look past the shots where the angles are a bit too close and all you see is the zit on Jerry Lee’s nose, or the booger hanging off Little Richard’s moustache.
Despite the interspersed images of hippies dancing and so on, it’s still an awesome gig captured on digital magic. A fun way to see this many legends playing in one place.
