The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter: Any Infos About This?

I just saw a segment about Tina Turner's video cameos and they talked about this one(but weren't clear about it).

What is this movie about? Is it like purple rain or something? Sorry, I'm just not fimiliar with it!

Also, tell me about her cameo in the movie.

Its a documentary of the ill fated Altamont festival where the Hell's Angels ,who were supposedly providing security,murdered a man in the crowd during the Stones set.They also punched out Marty Balin during Jefferson Airplane's performance, causing them to stop performing.Ike & Tina were opening for the Stones during this tour but dont appear in the Altamont segment.They do however perform Redding's"Ive Been Loving You Too Long..."
which is presented earlier in the film.Tina makes the song her own(very sexy).She looks beautiful( its her "70s straight brown hair, mini skirt look" )

This film is currently available on DVD.If your a Stones fan,it's worth getting.If you just want to see Tina,you might try to find it for rent.

its actually really great cinema verite! this is one of the best concert films because it really captures the chaos and emotions of spontaneity. i can't think of the name of the brothers who made this film but they havemade other verite films...nothing quite like this though.
