Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A record of the historic Berkeley concert on Memorial Day, 1970. For Hendrix admirers only; others are unlikely to be converted. Pilafian intercuts the concert with shots of rioting students to little effect. People flash their peace signs and say things like 'It's my country, right or wrong'. Hendrix just plays; best are 'Purple Haze' and 'Voodoo Chile'. And what did you do in the youth revolution, Daddy?.Author:
