Jefferson Starship: Greatest Video Hits
Having lit up the 1960s music scene with their own, highly popular brand of rock & roll, Jefferson Airplane regrouped and renamed themselves Jefferson Starship (and later, Starship) in the 1980s. Adding an addictive pop ingredient to their already potent brew paid off handsomely for the band, and opened their sound up to a whole new audience. To their surprise, Jefferson Starship landed two number one singles during this extremely productive time for the band, namely "We Built This City," and "Sara." GREATEST VIDEO HITS gathers a selection of their music videos from 1981-1987, paying tribute to their work from that era. As well as the aforementioned songs, promo's for "It's Not Over ('Til It's Over)," "Find Your Way Back," "Be My Lady," and many others are all included.

1 P.M. (One Parallel Movie)
Self
Lighter and livelier than the films Jean-Luc Godard had made in France, his U.S. collaboration with Direct Cinema documentarian D. A. Pennebaker was meant to be One A.M., as in “one American movie”; but Godard quit the project and the U.S., where to his dismay he discovered that revolution wasn’t imminent, and Pennebaker edited Godard’s material, to which he and Richard Leacock even added a bit more, releasing the result as One P.M., as in “one parallel movie.” It’s a stunning mixture of cinéma-vérité, political theater, and interviews of key sixties figures.

Self - Jefferson Airplane
Woodstock ou Festival de Woodstock foi um festival de música realizado entre os dias 15 e 18 de agosto de 1969 na fazenda de gado leiteiro de 600 acres de Max Yasgur, 70 quilômetros a sudoeste da cidade de Woodstock. Foi anunciado como "Uma Exposição Aquariana: 3 Dias de Paz & Música". O festival deveria ocorrer originalmente na pequena cidade de Wallkill, mas os moradores locais não aceitaram, o que levou o evento para a pequena Bethel, a uma hora e meia de distância. O festival exemplificou a era da contracultura do final da década de 1960 e começo de 1970. 32 dos mais conhecidos músicos da época se apresentaram durante um fim de semana, por vezes chuvoso, para 400 mil espectadores. Evento único e lendário, reconhecido como um dos maiores momentos na história da música popular. Tudo foi filmado para um documentário lançado em 1970, Woodstock, com trilha sonora dos melhores momentos, e com a canção Woodstock, de Joni Mitchell.
