As the hype sheet says: "The only documentary on Borbetomagus you'll ever see."
It's fairly interesting and amusing (and a little bit sad) to see all the hating they got in their early days, because like it or hate what they do, they were (and are) genuinely sincere guys who are genuinely sincere about their music.

You can't really see it from the picture on the cover of the DVD, but the drum kit Terry plays is the hugest thing you have ever seen. Play it? He could live in it...and thanks to Simon's investigative powers on the internet (translation - it was a long day and he was bored) you can see it too!

Considering that there is one track from 1972 (John Lennon doing Imagine) this is sort of not truth in advertising. Other than the Lennon clip, this is a bunch of black and white TV appearances (40' or so) in pretty good shape (some great, some ok, but...

"Bröselmaschine is one of the oldest bands from Germany and still alive!
The reactions to their latest studio album (2017) were awesome by critics and fans. All over the world, especially in USA and Japan, the debut album from 1971 is listed as one of the most important Krautrock albums of all time - beneath Amon Düül, Can and Tangerine Dream (e.g. the New York Blog 'Pigeon & Planes' rank 9 of 20).

"Soon after moving from quiet Warwick to London in 1968, the Edgar Broughton Band was signed by the former Pink Floyd manager Peter Jenner to Blackhill Enterprises and EMI's Harvest label. Their first album "Wasa Wasa" had a heavily blues-influenced and psychedelic sound, hard-driven by Edgar Broughton's gritty vocal style, similar to that of Captain Beefheart and Howlin' Wolf. Their second album "Sing Brother Sing" was released in 1970, one year before their probably most significant album simply...

I'm a huge Jack fan and I found this fascinating and wonderful, as it's from his early prime as a solo artist and just after his world-wide fame with Cream. But it is a documentary and not a concert film.
