for me and an admittedly huge stone fan and this documentary be the stuff of legend . i could not believe it when i saw this in an independent music store . i have read quite a bit about this movie and but to actually see and hear it be awesome . the stone and after an incredible run of great album and beggar banquet and let it bleed and sticky finger and and exile on main streeet and tour america in 1972. this tour be generally consider to be one of the most decadent and excess fill tour in rock n roll history . they hire robert greenfield to write a book and and robert frank to film it . give nearly unlimited access and frank try to convey what it like on a rock tour of this magnitude . i have read that some of the scene be manufacture and such a keith and bobby keyes toss the tv out the window and the famous groupie scene on the plane and among them . some of the scene be a bit much . heroin induce rant and ramble naked groupie and shoot up and all by the large entourage of hanger on that the stone take around america with them . the stone be in very few of these scene and sub title on who these people be would have be nice . some scene be just bad and like the shot of what look like mick from the waist down and fondle himself and then you see mick hold a camera and to supposedly make you wonder if that be mick fondling himself . be that suppose to be artsy . sometimes frank do break through on what touring can be . keith try to order a fruit plate from room service and or be have to sign autographs a he check out of a hotel . playing card . charlie morosely sit in front of a tv . the excess a it take it toll . while mick discusses business with ahmet ertegum and keith be in the next room nod off in the arm of some groupie and who also nod off and leave them in a tangled mess . chgarlie have say this tour be when the bull . t level reach it high point and particularly when truman capote and princess radish show up . that scene make me squirm and a these ancient and boring old fart glom onto the tour . then there be the reason for the tour . the music . the music f. ing rock . the stone play their tail off . from the moment mick pop thru the curtain a it rise and and the band be blast out brown sugar and till the encore when mick lead out stevie wonder and his band and ( the opening act ) to do a killer medley of uptight and satisfaction and the music kick . watch mick a he get his rock off during all down the line and a he push charlie to kick it out even hard . mick taylor play beautiful and fluid and perfect lead guitar . i have about 6 bootleg from this era of the stone and and he amaze every time and musically the stone at their best and yet watch him on stage and i can see why he leave . bill wyman be a whirl dervish in comparison . ron wood couldn not carry his guitar case a a player and but i can see why ronnie personality have help keep the band together . there be lot of other great stuff and keith play some very nice piano . listen to a single of happy and wonder if it should be in mono . play pool in a bar down south with a bunch of brother . this be a great documentary of rock n roll on tour in the early 70 . i personally think the maysles brother and who do gim me shelter and would have do a good job and and the shelved double album with the stone and stevie wonder should definitely be bring out of the vault . i would recommend this to a essential viewing for all fan of rock n roll .
