The film was purposely shot and edited to be “reactive” in style: spontaneous and natural. Hopefully you will feel as if you were a casual bystander, witnessing these events. Please note the songs played in the film (all songs played by the Rolling Stones unless otherwise noted), AND my comments regarding which songs are “off limits” for your post:
1. Jumpin’ Jack Flash (The Rolling Stones)
2. Satisfaction (The Rolling Stones)
3. (Wild Horses) – Great song – But don’t discuss this song. It’s not performed live – they’re listening to their studio recording in the film.
4. (Brown Sugar) – partial – Another great song – But don’t discuss this song either. It’s not performed live – they’re listening to their studio recording in the film.
5. (Love in Vain) Another great song – But don’t discuss this song either. It’s not performed live – they show slow-motion footage of the Stones in concert (probably performing another song).
6. I’ve Been Loving You Too Long (Ike & Tina Turner)
7. Honky-Tonk Woman (The Rolling Stones)
8. Street Fighting Man (The Rolling Stones) This is a great song, and a wonderful performance. However, the song is interrupted by a radio announcer who talks over the second verse and chorus. The camera footage also leaves the live performance and instead shows the preparations underway for the Altamont performance. The result is that the audio and video of this song’s performance are not consistent nor continuous. Therefore, I prefer that you don’t choose this song to analyze.
9. Six Days on the Road (The Flying Burrito Brothers)
10. The Other Side of This Life (Jefferson Airplane)
11. Sympathy for the Devil (The Rolling Stones)
12. Under My Thumb (The Rolling Stones)
13. (Street Fighting Man – Reprise) – Don’t discuss this performance of a part of their song – it’s too short.
14. (Gimme Shelter) Another great song – But don’t discuss this song either. It’s not performed live – we’re hearing their studio version while we see fans leaving the concert, and then end credits.
There are TWO PARTS to your INITIAL POST for this discussion (one thorough, well-written paragraph for each part):
Pick one song from the movie and talk about the LIVE performance (in the movie- DO NOT DISCUSS THE STUDIO VERSION). It can be one of the Stones’ songs or by one of the other performers. Discuss three of these elements: 1. Genre/style, including possible musical influences (for example: “This song in a rockabilly style has a walking acoustic bass, and a bright, clean guitar tone playing in a high register. I can hear elements of Merle Haggard’s clean country-flavored guitar fills as well as a similarity to the walking bass in Count Basie’s swing hits), 2. Rhythm (be detailed) 3. Instrumentation/Texture 4. Emotional connection w/the audience, 5. Riffs/Melodies/Hooks (counts as one), 6. Instrumental Solos (you must describe the solo, not just say that there is a solo or two in the song).
Discuss two of these topics: 1. Your observations of the youth culture of this time period (1969), 2. Your feelings regarding drug and alcohol use in performers and fans, 3. Your reaction to the tragedy that happened at Altamont and your thoughts regarding how this could have happened and what we can learn from it.
