Himself
Patti Smith fue uno de los artistas clave en el avance de New York City punk rock con su álbum de debut Horses 1975 siendo enormemente influyente en el género New Wave conjunto. Su distintiva mezcla de rock, punk y la poesía combinada con su estilo sin concesiones ha asegurado que se ha mantenido como un artista creíble a lo largo de su carrera. Este concierto en Montreux a partir de 2005 formó parte de la gira en apoyo de su álbum Trampin 2004 y la lista de canciones incluye temas de su primer álbum a la derecha a través de esa versión. Patti Smith sigue siendo un actor dinámico en vivo y en directo este primer concierto Blu-ray es un regalo desde hace mucho tiempo por todos sus fans.
Music
On October 23, 1998, a sniper carrying a high-powered rifle assassinated Dr. Barnett Slepian in his home, altering forever a family, a community, and the bounds of our imaginings about anti-abortion violence. This horrific act punctuated a decade of escalating harassment and violence against women’s heath care providers – a decade marred by murders, assaults, death threats, stalking, clinic blockades, arsons, bombings, and chemical attacks. How do these events affect the personal and professional lives of abortion providers? What motivates them to continue their work in the face of such terrorism?

Self
The cream of the New York new wave/punk crop, filmed live at CBGB when the scene was just beginning. Includes performances by Patti Smith, Blondie, Television, the Ramones, Talking Heads, the Heartbreakers, the Shirts, Wayne County, the Marbles, the Dolls, Miamis, Harry Toledo, and the Tuff Darts (w/Robert Gordon).
This is Poe and Král's first effort, shot on small-gauge stock, before their more well-known endeavor The Blank Generation (1976) came to be. A "DIY" portrait of the New York music scene, the film is a patchwork of footage of numerous rock acts performing live, at venues like Madison Square Garden, Radio City Music Hall, the dive bars of Greenwich Village and, of course, CBGB.
