Blind Melon: Live at Woodstock '94 (NaN)

Following the success of their eponymous debut in 1992, Blind Melon succumbed to the familiar tale of falling into the debauchery which comes hand in hand with rock ‘n’ roll riches. Their set on the main stage on day two at Woodstock '94 would mark the band at the peak of their powers as they delivered a performance that would have even stood out in ’69. For the exhilarating set, frontman Shannon Hoon opted to wear his girlfriend’s white dress which was quite the statement back in ’94, a time when society was no way near as progressive as it is today and signified the sort of accepting character that he was.

Lou Reed: Transformer e Live at Montreux (2001)

Originally released in 2001, director Bob Smeaton’s 80 minute Classic Albums: Transformer was universally praised for its well-constructed anatomy of a touchstone album. Now expanded to interweave the original broadcast version with the bonus features on the original disc, the story appropriately begins with Reed remembering his days with the Velvet Underground and the importance of Andy Warhol in making them a New York-based phenomenon. These discussions provide more than the historical context for Transformer. For one matter, that album had many nods to and inspirations from Warhol beyond the cast of characters in “Walk on the Wild Side.”
