Casey Kasem's Rock n' Roll Goldmine - The Sixties

Amazon.com A mixed bag of live and lip-synced performances by artists both legendary and long-forgotten (to many folks, anyway) is again the order of the day in The Sixties, one of five discs in the Rock n' Roll Goldmine boxed set, hosted by the eternal Casey Kasem. Included here are a few genuine classics, like Jim Morrison and the Doors playing "People Are Strange" on Ed Sullivan's show and the Who smashing through "My Generation" on "The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour" in 1967 (an infamous incident in which the extra gunpowder Keith Moon added to his drum kit resulted in an unexpectedly loud explosion at the end of the tune). Elsewhere, we see live concert footage of Eric Clapton and Cream (jamming on "Sunshine of Your Love"), Jimi Hendrix ("Purple Haze"--the sound and picture quality are poor, but it is Hendrix, and the interviews after the song are priceless), and a post-Big Brother Janis Joplin ("Try"); and if the lip-synced bits by the Small Faces ("Itchycoo Park"), proto-heavy metallurgists Blue Cheer ("Summertime Blues"), Canned Heat ("On the Road Again"), and others are somewhat less enduring, it's still pretty cool to have them at all. What's more, what could be bad about having footage from a Beatles interview in which John, Paul, and George are joined by Jimmy Nicol, who replaced Ringo for a few days when the drummer fell ill and was unable to tour? --Sam Graham Product Description Featuring: The Doors, The Who, The Small Faces, Steppenwolf, Blue Cheer, Cream, Canned Heat, Jimi Hendrix, and Janis Joplin.
