THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME (FILM)

It is really rare I find music performance documentary more preferable without the visual element allowing the perception for the players, but this legendary rock movie creates a rare exception for this rule. Though the compositions work more dynamically on stage, the fellows rejoicing their mighty moment on the glitter image is quite repulsive vision for my eyes. I am convinced a question of personal whim on tastes causes this, as I found films of The Who and Cream doing their stuff in circumstances quite close to this much more pleasing and fun. In addition of the filmed concert material the movie has some short fantasy sequences of each band member and their fat manger. If these short films are honest innovations, the conclusion from them is sadly for me that most of these guys weren't very clever. Have adored the double LP, but the received VHS cassette was lost in dust of forgetting.
