Legendary is a word that gets thrown around like confetti at a wedding. On paper, the lineup for this show sounds incredible. But the actual goods are not delivered. Marvin Gaye sounds ok, the Beach Boys are very good, but James Brown got a lot better as the 60′s moved on(see YouTube for the proof), and the Stones are out of tune and frankly, not very good. They got better as the decade progressed too. And the less said about the other acts, the better. This will appeal to aging boomers who rail about the bad music of today and want to relive their childhoods. Sadly, sometimes concert films should stay in the can, as is the case with this. The hype from the industry is of course impressive. At least the acts are live, so I will give it a star…….

This is very intriguing…Am I correct to assume by seeing the “DVD” icon and these several reviews, that the great long-lost concert film from the mid-60′s, the “T.A.M.I. Show” was reissued? and with the Beach Boys performances included? On DVD? Really? When? and if so, Why not reissue it? I can’t figure this out. There’s not even some widow trying to sell a used copy of it (that her collector husband bought?). Why wouldn’t say RHINO want to re-release this, since it included classic live performances from a series of great artists at their very peak, including James Brown, The Rolling Stones, Marvin Gaye, The Supremes, and Smokey Robinson and the Miracles? When I last saw much of this–rereleased with parts of the TNT show (which included some REALLY fantastic Ronettes performances) into “That Was Rock,” it did not include the Beach Boys songs, but I recall that the Leslie Gore stuff from TAMI were GREAT! They even dimmed the lights for a moody ballad. I’ve read in the past that the late 60′s Beach Boys were non-plussed at their performances (or their supposedly un-hip striped shirts) and their perception that the Rolling Stones and James Brown stole the show, so they litigated themselves out of the film. BUT, if this was the case, then why have I seen various clips and individual songs of the Beach Boys TAMI show performances in other films?
Another big reason to rerelease this DVD (if there really WAS a DVD of it), is in my estimation, to help right a great cultural and musical wrong: to raise respect and appreciation of Jan and Dean–the show’s MC’s and performers, who for some reason to this date, are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Yes, the Ramones are, who if you took out their humor/J & D influence, might have been kind of like Ozzy Osbourne or something forgetable like that. So, I don’t think that it’s span of influence that has kept J and D out… Is it popularity and record sales ? Well, no, they had a number one, and created top 5 hits in two decades, and counting Jan’s excellent 90′s solo CD “Second Wave,” they released top notch music for 40 years! Is it just the hippy thing? (you know, Rolling Stone magazine–which selects the Hall of fame inductees, was where we read (the seriously disturbed/smashed on heroin) John Lennon (who was between wives at the time and nearing Beatles break-up) call America in 1963 “unhip” for “digging Jan and Dean.” and Jimmy Hendrix, had some secret message on the back of one of his LP’s along the lines of “May you never hear surf music again.” Right? Doesn’t matter though. It’s a travesty. Screw the hippies! If it means, jerking out Frank Zappa, put Jan and Dean IN the rock and roll Hall of Fame. Facial hair (or drug-addled fans) shouldn’t be an entrance requirement.
and MAKE this concert film available, someone. Start a petition. It’s REALLY great and unique. A CRIME that it’s not available. a CRIME (like Jan and Dean’s non-inclusion in the r n r hall!). Similarly idiotic.
