The last waltz
19 May 2006Directed by Martin Scorcese featuring the last concert of The Band, this is one of the best concert films:
On Thanksgiving Day 1976, more than 5,000 cheering fans gathered for the historic farewell concert of The Band, a Canadian country-soul-R&B group formed in 1960. Director Martin Scorsese was present at the big event and later edited the concert footage to create this documentary, interspersing band interviews with performances by legends such as Eric Clapton, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Van Morrison, Bob Dylan and Emmylou Harris. [Hmm.., netflix doesn't consider Muddy Waters, Paul Butterfield, Dr. John as legends!]
Here is the wikipedia link and link to list of reviews.
