...footage of Altamont and the infamous-almost unbearably brutal-stabbing caught on film, there's great concert footage from the tour: the Stones are at their raw and gritty peak and Mick Jagger gives a clinic in stage dominance. There's even prophetic footage of Tina Turner singing a duet with Ike Turner, their voices spasmodically oscillating between pure sexuality and brutal violence. We see great backstage footage and intimate shots of the Stones in the studio recording Sticky Fingers. We see the machinations of the music industry attempting to alchemize the flailing fury of '60s rock 'n roll into...

...Nashville over just who is country and who ain't. The two fronts converged at last week's Country Music Association Awards, where the contemporary DIXIE CHICKS took home four trophies while traditionalists George Strait and Alan Jackson won the Vocal Event category for Murder on Music Row, a duet that condemns country's pop trend with lines like "The almighty dollar and the lust for worldwide fame slowly killed tradition and for that someone should hang."

...Better You Bette The audience responded enthusiastically to all the performances, but the appreciation became even more pronounced when a proudly svelte Bette Midler took the stage - and the audience - by storm. In addition to singing a hypnotic "The Rose" she brought on Spector chanteuse Darlene Love to duet with her on "He's a Rebel" and deliver a powerhouse "River Deep Mountain High."

Ecleftic boasts cameos from country star Kenny Rogers and pro wrestler the Rock. A Marley-ish protest song about police brutality (Diallo) is balanced by a lighthearted tribute to marijuana (Something About Mary).
