Live in Concert

The great concert films are as much a feast for the ears as they are for the eyes, an ecstatic melding of sound and image that not only replicates the live concertgoing experience but heightens it. From Jimi Hendrix (setting his guitar ablaze in Monterey Pop ) and the Rolling Stones (delivering a swan song for the counterculture in Gimme Shelter ) to the Talking Heads ( Stop Making Sense , with David Byrne sporting his famous “big suit”) and Prince (partying like it’s 1987 in Sign o’ the Times ), this collection of classic concert documentaries is your all-access pass to some of the most electrifying musical performances ever captured on film.
