Movies: All rock music movies. The Last Waltz is THE rock film directed by Marty Scorcese right out of NYU film school. The Band never looked and sounded better. All music video directors and wannabees should study this piece of art. No fast cutting, no MTV shaky cam, no egos, just letting the artists do their thing. Marty's cameramen, all award winning DP's captured the art.

As the Stones sing, "Time is on my side". I grew up in the most exciting decade in America, the 60's. What a time it was. Our generation stopped an unjust war through music and loud voices. I'm still doing mainstream TV after all these years. What a great ride. Enjoy the memories here.Videos (96)
