Vincent Vega Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Here it isIt's a perfect rendition of it! And Mick and everybody look awesome. Unfortunately, the only thing that's missing is Merry Clayton. It's such a sad song, and what makes this performance even sadder is the little caption in the beginning that says "Pop Goes the 60's" It's true, that performance at Altamont killed the spirit of the 60's and launched us in the 70's. We were on the verge of both civil war and also philosophical and/or spiritual englightenment and it went to a crashing halt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlslash Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 This is NOT the performance from Altamont. It is in the movie, but it is NOT from Altamont. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeanGenie Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Look at Charlie Watts, he's high as a kite. druggie musicians are a strange race they can be drugged up outta their minds and still manage to play their instruments properly.

Zint Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 It's a promo video from 1969,of which there were 2 versions filmed for this song...the one viewed here,and a second one that has some insert news footage.Mary Clayton's vocals were edited out for the obvious reason...she wasn't there.This airing of the promo video is from Top of the Pops,a special episode entitled Pop Goes The 60's.
