643.0. "FILMORE West & East" by GIDDAY::HAHLING (Werner Hahling - Townsville/Australia) Tue May 31 1994 07:37

    Hi people ...
    
    
    
    ... some decades ago (is it really that long??) I've seen the movie 
    "FILMORE - the last days" in a little cinema over in Europe - mind you,
    I do have the LP set out of that !!
    
    Anybody know if that movie ever was released on video ?? I would be
    rather interrested to know - sort of as a memory trigger and as well my
    kids are kind of interrested to know what we "oldies" were listening to
    and how it all looked those days.
    
    The LP set does really sound good, considering that all is live
    material and has been recorded some years ago when recording
    technology wasn't what it is todate - but "atmosphere" probably makes up
    a lot for as well !!
    
    
    regards

643.1do you remember any details???STKAI1::SWE098::MSTROMTue May 31 1994 13:586
The film title rings a bell... Do you know who played in it and/or remember
the storyline?? I have a slight hunch that FilmNet showed a movie with theg
title you mantion a few years ago. Should give some hope that it is available
on video...

643.2 where did I read this... EZ2GET::STEWARTFight fire with marshmallowsTue May 31 1994 14:107
    
    
    funny that you should bring this topic back to life at this moment.  I
    believe the Fillmore West re-opened recently.  Maybe if we have anyone
    noters left in SF they could confirm/deny this rumor?
    
    
643.3Fillmore West is open againKOLFAX::WIEGLEBLong live King Ludd!Tue May 31 1994 17:046
    Yes.  The Fillmore in SF has been booking shows now for about a month 
    or so.  They've had a variety of interesting bookings - none of which
    were sufficiently interesting to me to get me into a large venue
    though.

    to copy) I'll be greatful !

Please!  Let's not commit blasphemy, OK?  It's the *Grateful* Dead.

643.7MKOTS3::JOLLIMOREHeavy clouds: no rainWed Jun 01 1994 16:009
	Not to be blasphemous , but The Grateful Dead are probably the
	weakest point on this CD.  ;-)
	
	Santana did a grate set, as did Hot tuna and Taj Mahal. Malo, who
	I don't remember ever hearing about, did a grate tune called
	"Prana". But the Dead set was lame, IMO. I'd love to see the
	video of this.

    The Last Days of The Fillmore  I believe is the title..I have it on
    vinyl, with nice booklet, and a listing of all the shows that ever took
    place at both East & West....and the box has a 45" (remember those?)
    of an interview with Bill Graham....I wonder how muh this is worth
    these days, complete with booklet and 45....
    
    grate 2 page picture of the Dead in the middle...
    
643.10Malo - Carlos' brotherODIXIE::BRANCOLINISat Jun 04 1994 02:462
    Malo was a band that included Carlos Santana's brother Jorge. I think.
    Anybody confirm this?
643.11MALO is Jorge Santana's bandGIDDAY::HAHLINGWerner Hahling - Townsville/AustraliaSun Jun 05 1994 22:429
    That's correct ... MALO was Jorge Santana's band, it had one hit in
    the US called "cafe".
    
    Jorge (Carlos' brother) played with SANTANA on their recent world tour.
