В 2016 году по случаю 40-й годовщины выхода альбома «Horses» Патти Смит и ее группа два вечера подряд выходили на сцену лос-анжелесского концертного зала «Уилтерн», чтобы сыграть все треки с этой легендарной записи. В фильме-концерте крестная панк-рока и ее музыканты, среди которых участники первого состава Ленни Кей и Джей Ди Доерти, исполняют свои невероятные классические хиты, в том числе «Gloria» и «Free Money». А в потрясающем кавере на песню The Who «My Generation» отметился знаменитый бас-гитарист Фли. Это выступление — волнующее напоминание о том, что и по прошествии более сорока лет гимн свободе в исполнении Патти Смит звучит все так же актуально и мощно.

Featuring- IAN MACKAYE, NOAM CHOMSKY, MIKE WATT, THURSTON MOORE, LENNY KAYE (Patti Smith), CHRIS FRANTZ (Talking Heads), GLENN BRANCA, PATTERSON HOOD (Drive By Truckers), PAT CARNEY (Black Keys) , LEGS MCNEIL, BOB GRUEN, BP HELIUM, and many indie record stores across the U.S.
