This
double DVD just came out to document the very cool festival called Freak Valley
that celebrates modern 70s inspired, psychedelic and stoner rock… This is a
double DVD and a very cool documentary on the festival. Anyone that was there
will recall great memories of the place, the people and bands as they walk around
and film all over and talk to a number of fans (mostly in German with no
subtitles but some people from other countries as well). The video footage has
in general been quite well edited and not just set on change camera every 5
seconds so when there is a longer guitar solo, you might be a lot of it filmed
and not focusing on the drummer or something.. They paid attention.. I thought
all the bands would be represented but there are a number that did not make the
DVD such as Samsara Blues Experiment and Sir Admiral Cloudsley Shovell. I was
happy to see a number of bands from the first day that I missed like Lone
Crows, The Midnight Ghost Train, Ivy garden of the Desert and Radio Moscow…
Most bands have one complete song but a few are missing a complete track like
the Elder track is cut short and Øresund Space Collective (our jam was like
20mins..) Nice to see the headline bands agreeing like Blues Pills and radio
Moscow, although Kadavar is missing. Anyway, this is an awesome DVD and highly
recommended.. The Documentary has English subtitles which is great.. Fantastic work guys and gals…
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
