Fascinating, deep and ferociously funky 1973 documentary about the famous Wattstax Music Festival held in Watts, California in 1972. Positioned by those involved, at the time, as a “joyful expression of the living world” in a time when in the States things in every day life may not have quite chimed with that sentiment, for a large portion of the population… Pretty hard to argue with though. And I guess, some things take time to improve. Hope you dig this one, like we did.
