      Yes I watched the film before I watched this. My step dad was there, he was coming back on a Greyhound bus from Oakland to Stockton, just back from Vietnam. Of course the bus couldn't make it thru so he got off, went to the concert, found some HA supporters he knew from Oakland to hang out with. What a way to come home. I had wanted to go to it so bad but there was no way my mom was going to let that happen. I was 15 at the time. This was not the spot to expect peace & love, not in the valley like that, not those times. That scene was already fading fast,

Best band of all time, which is also saying a lot. Hoping the Stones are still here in 2069.

      Brian brought some amazing ideas and musicianship to the Stones, and I love the guy, but he was also becoming a bit of a liability. There's a video of the Stones playing "Satisfaction" on Ed Sullivan where he screws up badly and noticeably several times-- not stopping at the breaks and then not coming back in and leaving Richards all alone to play the lead riff. It's hard to find the full performance on RUclips-- there are several videos of it with those parts noticeably edited OUT, and others where the audio is overdubbed entirely, but if you can find the whole performance--OUCH !!

    This was a fantastic documentary, very well put together and highly informative.
    It's always amazed me how the Grateful Dead have constantly managed to be spared their share of responsibility for the Altamont debacle when, after all, they were the ones who, in the first place, recommended the Hells Angels, maybe not the chapeter that wound up at Altamont, but how could the Stones know about the San Francisco chapter vs the San Jose chapter vs the Oakland chapter. The Dead (and their manager Rock Scully) knew about this and the various differences among chapters and should have been more involved. But they weren't. Then, at the festival itself, and this is critical, after arriving to perform in their alloted slot, the Grateful Dead, taking stock of the violence that had taken place up to that point, walked out on the event and left the premisis altogether, leaving a 2 hour gap before the Stones came on. The Dead, on their own home turf, with an audience that was their crowd, their people, bolted like cowards, fearing further violence. They could have had a soothing effect on the crowd if they'd performed. It may or may not have worked, but their unwillingness to try was reprehensible. They knew the Stones were now alone and didn't have the option of walking out. As bad as things were at the moment of the Dead's exit, there's no telling how much worse things might have degenerated had the Stones, too, walked out. The Grateful Dead's bailing essentially gave the message that the cared only about saving themselves. They didn't care about the state of affairs at Altamont. They didn't care about the pile of crap they were handing the Stones, leaving them to hold the bag when the time came to find blame for a festival gone awry. If this concert had been in London, on the Stones' home turf, and they had walked out on the Grateful Dead under similar circumstances, nobody would have hesitated to blame the Stones for chickening out, and rightfully so. Well, at Altamont, this is what the Grateful Dead did. Have they ever answered for this? Have any of their fellow California musicians that performed that day ever answered the question about the impact of the bailing by the Grateful Dead? These other bands all bailed themselves, but at least they performed. In the end, The Grateful Dead high-tailed it out of Altamont to save their own skins, the Stones be damned and the rest of the crowd as well.

Just giving Mick real "go to hell" looks!

    • @DDEENY
      @DDEENY Год назад +4

      I know the scene that you're referring to. Altamont was an historic rock and roll tragedy, the Paradise Lost following Woodstock and the 1960's went out in a whimper. But it was no accident - it was caused by treacherous indifference translated to disorganization. Mick was either unwilling or unable to postpone the date so that it could be organized properly because of The Stones' committed tour schedule. (He'd also skipped Brian's funeral because he was scheduled to be on location in Australia for the filming of _Ned Kelly_ .) Ambition lends itself to ruthlessness. Part of the the lure of using The Hells Angels as security (although to their credit The Angels admitted that they weren't and didn't pretend to be a police force) was that they were hired cheaply with a U-Haul truckload of beer rather than money in the spirit of a "free" concert. By design the event was filmed and intended as a finale to The Stones' 1969 filmed tour documentary with hundreds of thousands of free stand-in actors. Of course, it would have been wise to cancel the concert altogether. Almost 10 years to the day following, The Who had their worst day when several people were trampled to death in Cincinnati due to a management failure of locking the arena doors until shortly before the beginning of a concert, and rather than having the fans trickle in, they rushed the door as soon as they opened. But that was purely a regrettable mistake in planning rather than a contrived event and The Who's management had nothing to do with that. Hard lessons learned, and life goes on. Thank you.

    Great documentary on not just the Rolling Stones and Altamont but the 1960s itself. Most decades seem the same for most of the 10 years of them but the 1960s were like three decades in one with 1960-63 1964-67 and 1968-69 all different in fashion culture and politics. Manson and Altamont ended the 60s but really they ended in 1968 with all the chaos which resulted in a backlash that led to the rise of more conservatism of Nixon Agnew and Heath also the great economic boom of the 60s ended at the end of the decade to be replaced with inflation and unemployment and the flower power of booming 1967 became clean up cut your hair some and get a job by 1970. This documentary was well edited and did a good job of covering the events in one of the wildest greatest most creative saddest decade in history.

Side note: The Stones left America that next morning, leaving Sam Cutler to pick up the pieces. He stayed in America, using the rent a car he had under the Stones name, then hooked up with the Grateful Dead, working for them for many years.

    Stones (and lots of other people) thought "Hey, so many hippies in San Fran, let's have a groovy free concert." California (I grew up in L.A) can be a very violent and depressing place. Stones didn't know that. But the Dead knew it, those cowardly hypocrites took a helicopter ride back to the city as fast as they could. They must have figured (and they were right) nobody's here to see us, let's get the hell out of here. The Dead encouraged the Stones to hire the Angels, i've always thought that whole fiasco was the Dead's fault anyway.

    Days of Rage captures how politics, social injustice and the desire for freedom and self determination became bound to contemporary music and culture. The Stones were an integral part of a mix of people and events (The Counter-Culture) that created both the chaos and liberation of 1960's American culture. Unfortunately, this idealistic movement became top heavy with its focus on pleasure, drugs, music, sex (Narcissism) as the solution to the problems of human civilization. This excessive narcissistic focus without appropriate boundaries combusted into violence at Altamont. The Counter-Culture lacked the maturity to build the foundation for real peace and brotherhood. Communication, understanding and social equality is something that still alludes mankind.....
    And, the Stones, as Rock Royalty, contributed to this spirit of narcissistic spirit with their woman hating lyrics, and violent imagery portrayed in their album, Beggars Banquet with its anthems: Street Fighting Man and Jumpin Jack Flash. The Stones embodied hedonism, rebellion and darkness, not the idealism of cooperation and understanding between people.

    I watched a documentary about the Hells Angels that mentioned Altamont (i can't remember the name). Basically, the Hells Angels wanted their lawyer, bail, damages, etc. costs that resulted from this disaster paid for by the stones. The stones said no. So, the HA made it a point to try and track members down.
    At one point, Jagger was on a yacht (i forget where. It was New York Hells Angels that went out, so i guess near there), and some HA's go out on a boat to try and get their money from Jagger on the yacht. Well, the seas got too rough for the boat the HA's were in, and they had to go back. Once Jagger heard about this, he sent the HA's all the money they were asking for. I believe it was either $50k or $100k?
    If you want to see Jerry Garcia and others perform for the HA's, look for a documentary on RUclips called "Hells Angels Forever". It's a documentary made by the HA's in the 60s and 70s. He and others perform on a big boat to raise money. It's definitely a weird documentary. There are others too i can link.

    The Hells Angels actually saved Mick Jaggers life that night. They said Meredith Hunter was in a dispute with the Angels. So why did he point the gun at Mick? If there was any dispute, it was probably because he was either threatening someone or starting trouble.
    The fact is that he did have a loaded gun and pointed directly at Jagger. The film clearly shows the gun pointed at the stage. It also shows a Hells Angel come out of nowhere and parry the hand holding the gun and came with a downstroke to stab Hunter which killed him. They were hired to do security, and that’s exactly what they did when it really mattered.
    Also, the guys hitting people with pool cues in front of the stage earlier weren’t Hells Angels. None of them were actually patched members of the club. They were prospects, which is why they were so violent. Trying to prove themselves to the club.
    The Grateful Dead were there to perform but after Hunter was killed, they knew the press would take their name and performance out of context and make them seem like they were cold blooded and evil. They made the right decision to leave.
    Personally, I think the whole event was nothing but a huge Satanic blood ritual but that’s just my personal opinion.

    Even though Taylor is a great guitar player I have to say that I prefer the material they made with Brian Jones still contributing. They made good albums after he left but I think they were a lot more predictable after Brian Jones left . The best songs they made from 62 -69 were better for the contributions Jones made to them. Marimbas , sitar, slide guitar, etc. Mick and Keith have been dismissive about what Brian meant to the group but I don't think they are being totally honest about it. Brian's peers outside of the group seem to have a totally different point of view about Jones and his talent than Jagger and Richards.

    What a bunch of crap about the Stones being at the forefront of "resistance" (whatever that's supposed to mean anyway). They were always great followers of fashion: mod, hip, a touch of radical chic, disco, punk, gay chic, Jagger trying (awfully) to dance like Michael Jackson, etc. Casting Jumping Jack Flash as in any way political is absurd. Street Fighting Man is an obvious attempt to capitalise on the mood, but it doesn't say anything; in fact "what can a poor boy do except to sing for a rock and roll band" - gee, how revolutionary. It was all fashion driven by commercial interest.

      Don't know why Carlos Santana would withhold any of his performance at Altamont, unless *gasp* he was exaggerating about his performance there! According to the video I watched of him talking about that day...he says he thought it was one of their best performances, musical-wise, they ever did! But then again, this is him talking with 30-40yrs of retrospect, and realizing that Altamont was a cultural and historical event, and needed to add a "wow" factor about him for that day. Just like that story where his acid trip at Woodstock was so intense his guitar neck was moving "like a snake" and he was barely able to keep it together. Must have scored the best acid there! Did he come up with that in retrospect also? After realizing what a cultural milestone Woodstock was becoming?! The guy just seems to be one of those who always has one better than you, no matter the subject. He also pulls out the race-card when not needed. Don't like the guy much, as you probably can tell. Seems to hold himself with great importance. Google the video for yourself and see. Then you'll be wondering why they didn't release their whole show at Altamont.

    I was in California just before Altamont, hanging out in Berkeley, then Big Sur. I had plans to attend the concert, but that idea was trashed when I got busted for hitch hiking by a California Highway Patrol dude in Big Sur. Not long after, I was deported to Toronto and had to settle in for a long winter in the frozen north.

    FYI, friend, I am on the run and will rejoin you later. Just wanted to mention. Rubber Soul is said to be the next album to get the Giles Martin treatment, like Revolver last year, etc. So you are ahead of everyone else, cuz everyone will be all over Rubber Soul when the new one drops, probably next year (I think Now and Then delayed it, otherwise it would have been next.) *

    I believe Mick Jagger's enthusiasm for the Devil was greatly diminished by Altamont, having Sum1 murdered in front of you and being Powerless over the crowd, I believe on some level Jagger felt impotent, which he was; Satan had the last laugh, or to quote Ozzy, "Satan laughing spread his wings ";

    First Stones concert I was old enough to attend was in 1978 during the tour to support the Some Girls album. The bandmembers were talking about retiring then. They may as well have. They have not created any worthwhile misic since that time.

    Agree that ‘69 is too soon in terms of the Stones peaking-they were still staying in Holiday Inns on that tour and playing in college auditoriums. But I also agree with Nick Kent, who said that after the ‘72 tour, some of the spark of magic, of relevance, of danger was gone from the band for good.

    Someone has finally done a better job of documenting Altamont and The Stones '69 tour than Gimme Shelter did. That film is a huge letdown. Always left an empty feeling afterwards. It just came out too soon afterward. Nowadays you can really add tons of relevant stuff in retrospect. Bravo! Well done chaps!
