Summer of Soul (…or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised)

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/oct/12/the-20-greatest-concert-films-ranked

Might be splitting hairs, but I see this more as a music documentary (I've not timed it, but I'm sure there's more talking heads than music) than concert movie, so I'm not sure if I'd say its better than Sign O The Times, Jazz On a Summers Day, or stop Making Sense, or whatever, but best concert movie EVER? Anyway, now that concert movies are getting talked about again, I'm hoping they release a sequel made up of the actual sets from Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone etc, or at least issue it on a DVD/Blu Ray release at some point.

I thought there was a little too much editorializing/splaining from contemporary talking heads---gratuitously, since the socio-political connections with what's happenin' now were obvious enough, and what's happenin' then spelled out at times by performers and audience---fuck a moon landing, we got people starving without that money in space, etc.---but overall, the talk/music ratio was quite reasonable, helped considerably by quality of music (also quality of the talk re commentary by performers and members of the audience looking back)

Love the Sly set so much

Yes, that drummer still rattling my double-take skull---and he's just a part of it of course.
Have always hoped that all the footage might be accessible at say National Museum of African American History and Culture etc. if not as more movie releases per se.
