comparing to hendrix in that show, hendrix is a better guitarist but his musicians are acolytes in the background, whereas santana is a collective clusterfuck that just blows everyone to pieces.

Its just cuz the sound guy was shit and the mix down overly focused on Jimi.. Larry Lee actually played some great guitar on that but they muted it on the soundboard recordings however when you listen carefully he is there consistently. Indeed i always found it odd that Jimi didn't decide to keep a secon guitar player because i.always felt like Woodstock is Hendrix's best performance precisely because he had a rhythm guitar player to jam with. Its not even a cliche, i have dozens of Hendrix live recordings and his lead work is possibly the most creative and explorative in that performance and i always felt like it was cuz of Larry Lee being there. Also, they purposely cut out Juma's bongos because well, dude was going a bit too off on them.. Billy Cox on bass is holding it down like Noel never could, i always preferred Billy to Noel

Yes this is true.. Mitch actually is a terrible drummer in the conventional sense, buddy miles was the superior tactician, but Mitch was better at "following " Jimi the way say Bill Ward could follow Tony Iommi so it always was a better fit. I think the best Hendrix line up was Billy Jimi Mitch

A big fave of mine. Little Edie was like a Warhol Superstar transplanted to the Hamptons. As you say, weird, disturbing, funny, sad.

"Don't throw bouquets at me
Don't please my folks too much
Don't laugh at my jokes too much
People will say we're in love!
Don't sigh and gaze at me
Your sighs are so like mine
Your eyes mustn't glow like mine
People will say we're in love!
Don't start collecting things
Give me my rose and my glove.
Sweetheart they're suspecting things
People will say we're in love."

Saw this again late Saturday night. I still dig it fully. 9/10

 


Saw this on the repeated urging of my wife. Had not seen it because I never want to watch movies where people say "You remind me so much of the guy in the movie." ha! but I liked it.
8/10

this past weekend i saw

CLOUD ATLAS - started sloooowwww and it almost put me to sleep (i was tired) but the next day it picked up and was pretty good, considering its hodgepodge quality ("fiskadoro meets the matrix meets blade runner meets buddhism meets many meats"). mega-ambitious hence doomed to failm, and yes a little bit cheesy (okay, a lot cheesy) but when the old farts said "all for one and one for all" i teared up a little. worth a look even if in the end you disapprove. watch it in the daytime. 4/5

THE DOUBLE - moss from the IT crowd (richard ayoade) directed this. starts VERY kafkaesque then switches slightly-- found out it's adapted from a dostoevsky story i've never read before ("the double"). i must now check that out.

i would have liked the movie more if i hadn't seen scenarious like this before (gilliam's brazil, etc.) the lighting/photography was reminiscent 4 months 2 weeks 3 days-- dim lights everywhere. i did like that.

for someone with innocent eyes it will probably be a 5/5, for jaded me it was a 3-- however, since it was moss (moss rules!) then it's a 4/5.

BIRDMAN - great, really. amazing camera work for starters--that thing goes on non-stop and it goes everywhere-- fantastic technical achievement and it's not technique for its own sake but it feeds into the frantic and claustrophobic pace of the story.

story is okay (a big goofy with the telekinesis or whatever) but the acting is great-- whatsisname and edward norton-- great. emma stone with her alien eyes, very good. amy ryan i like lots but is there so briefly. same as naomi watts. this was mostly about keaton who delivered the goods.

in the end, it's a filmed play, and maybe it's not a great play, but the way it was filmed and acted was super-impressive. 5/5 since i'm using integers, but maybe 4.5/5 if granularity is required. best thing i saw all weekend besides the lewandowski goal.

Saw Wild Tales yesterday, really good. 9/10 at least. A couple of really astounding things in it. see it if you get a chance, this is the best of 2015 for me so far

^I've not heard of that one. High praise indeed. I started trying to get through my Ghibli list again recently so watched the cat returns and tales from earthsea, both pleasantly ok. At this point I feel like i've seen it all.

Also saw Essential Killing, Elysium, and the pointless remake of The Evil Dead.

Had a blast watching it. Quirky humor as is to be expexted from Wes Anderson and stop-motion animation blends perfectly with that formula. The visuals are rich and beautifully detailed. The plot is very simple, making room for a focus on character development.
