Movie Reviews of Canned Heat: Live at Montreux, 1973
Movie Review: A rich gripping insight in historys greatest boogie band
Summary: 5 Stars
This personal review from noted musician / DJ, Wildman Dave Diamond to Fito de la Parra, was too succinct not to post:
This evening I sat down to watch the new "Boogie with Canned Heat" & "Live at Montreaux 1973" two DVD set. As of this writing, I have not yet watched the Montreaux concert, but I did watch the "Boogie" documentary, hosted by you, Skip and Mole.
Wow, I don't even know where to start! It was, without a doubt, the most emotionally intense musical documentary I've ever seen on any band, and I've seen dozens of them. Most documentaries on music bands end with me usually feeling "I learned something new" or "That was pretty cool."
This documentary on Canned Heat left me emotionally drained! I laughed at times, got pissed at times, dropped my jaw a lot and was quietly fascinated by the stories, the video clips, the history of the bands' lineup, but all throughout, with each member who passed away brought some tears, starting with Alan, then Michael Mann, then Bob, then Henry, each one was just harder to grasp as the evolution of the band continued. This DVD got out of me just about every emotion one can possibly have while watching a documentary!
There was just so much I didn't know about Henry & the band in general outside of Monterey Pop & Woodstock. I get the true sense that no one was the same when Alan passed away. For the first time I got to really experience a bit of Alan's loss as if it were yesterday the way you, Skip and Larry told the story. Up to now, I have only read articles and quotes about Alan.
You guys gave the bands' history a voice that no past article, book or website I've ever read could match in terms of emotion and just left me speechless!
Musically, I was amazed to finally see some of the Woodstock 10th Anniversary footage with Michael Mann, that was an awesome performance! I also very much enjoyed the Chet Helms Stomp performance with the Chambers Brothers. This was also my first time ever seeing any kind of footage of the Hooker & Heat sessions, too, that right there made me very pleased to have made this purchase!
It was also a pleasure to finally see & hear from Skip & Mole, too. I feel Skip was definitely born to manage Canned Heat! The stories about the Australia customs incident were hilarious but I found myself quite angered at Bear's conduct at the ski lodge gig. Not like him, based on everything I know of him. Guess we all have off nights!
I think Bob lost his soul when Alan died, even though Canned Heat carried on, I just noticed that smile that was very evident in the 1968 "On The Road Again" video & at the Woodstock performance was just not there in any future lineup. Bob looked good and sang great, but he just LOOKED different, in his eyes and with his vibe thereafter.......
From the heart and as a longtime fan/friend, Fito, giving this Canned Heat DVD 5 stars STILL wouldn't say enough good about it. Watching this DVD is quite the experience and by far the best Canned Heat anything that I have in my collection. Job WELL done on this project! Cheers.....
