The Angels, The Stones and The Dead

Cautionary Tales with Tim Harford
Contains very strong language and some violent scenes.

Available for over a year

In the final days of the Sixties, The Rolling Stones join forces with other rock legends to plan a free concert at Altamont Speedway that will rival Woodstock. The "bad boys of rock" don't have the warmest relationship with the police, so they choose another option for security: The Hells Angels. They're both anti-establishment, they're both counterculture: what could possibly go wrong?
