Info

Peter Whitehead’s disjointed Swinging London documentary, subtitled “A Pop Concerto,” comprises a number of different “movements,” each depicting a different theme underscored by music: A early version of Pink Floyd’s “Interstellar Overdrive” plays behind some arty nightclub scenes, while Chris Farlowe’s rendition of the Rolling Stones’ “Out of Time” accompanies a young woman’s description of London nightlife and the vacuousness of her own existence. In another segment, the Marquess of Kensington (Robert Wace) croons the nostalgic “Changing of the Guard” to shots of Buckingham Palace’s changing of the guard, and recording act Vashti are seen at work in the studio. Sandwiched between are clips of Mick Jagger (discussing revolution), Andrew Loog Oldham (discussing his future) – and Julie Christie, Michael Caine, Lee Marvin, and novelist Edna O’Brien (each discussing sex). The best part is footage of the riot that interrupted the Stones’ 1966 Royal Albert Hall concert.

Tonite Let's All Make Love in London Audience Reviews

Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
ChristerThor For die-hard fans of Pink Floyd only. This is a history-lesson into the psychedelic London underground of the mid-60's, where light-shows, "Happenings", Beat-poetry, and spacey music were all the rage. This film is mainly several pieces of concert-footage of Pink Floyd in its original incarnation, when Syd Barret was still in the band, prior to him loosing his marbles and being replaced by David Gilmour. You see Syd and the band playing some long sets of "Interstellar Overdrive" on stage under strobe-lights, a piece of music that true fans love and which the uninitiated often find meandering and boring due to the modern short-attention span. This is Space-Rock, it ain't Britney Spears.You get to hear Allen Ginsburg recite poetry over images of the London night-life. You see John Lennon attending one of Yoko Ono's famous performance-art pieces, prior to them having met. You see Eric Burdon walking around. It's basically a slice-of-life in the heart of what's now called "the Swinging 60's". View it, if you can find it, for the history, if nothing else. For Floyd fans it's one of very few opportunities to see Syd Barret playing with the band, which is reason enough to seek it out.
apigpuke This film is a great reflection of London and the British scene in the 1960's, dated for 1967, with authentic film footage of Pink Floyd with brilliant Syd Barrett heading them. Some people say it is boring, but should not leave reviews if they feel so strongly to negate a film which requires patience and culture, perhaps a more enlightened perspective. It features cameos by Lee Marvin parading about, as well as Eric Burdon, another legend. The reason why some do not understand it is because it is'nt filled with gimmickery or special effecst or some ellaborate script that fits into some conventional genre. But it is an experimental film, a time-capsule with rare raw footage that Floyd fans or any British scene enthusiast would love. I personally was thrilled and would reccomend the film to anyone with interest or the I.Q. to comprehend the film's inherent idea. If you are looking for some passionate drama or an Arnold S. gore-fest, go elsewhere. Dig this film!
wwe3 If you in no way enjoy Pink Floyd music, then do not buy/rent/steal this video. You will not like it.However, if you really like Pink Floyd and really get into their early stuff, this video is a real find. Peter Whithead directed this as a dedication to Syd Barrett and to capture the mood of swinging London. It includes the greatest version of 'Interstellar Overdrive' ever recorded. And a song called 'Nick's Boggie' which is a very hard to find Pink Floyd track. See this film for no other reason than to hear the music and enjoy the scenery.If you like the film, another good video to get is the Pink Floyd London '66-'67 video. It is 30 minutes long and was used as a Promotional trailer for 'Tonite, Let's all Make Love in London'. The film 'More' is also an interesting film with a soundtrack by Pink Floyd, that features their earlier work.
Phantom Moonhead This is basically a short film focusing on Pink Floyd. It was shot at the UFO club in London if I am not mistaken. There is some footage of John Lennon being introduced to Yoko Ono so this is very important to Beatle fans as well. The rest is Pink Floyd in the studio recording the films soundtrack, "Interstellar Overdrive". This is a 16 minute version of the song and a wonderful little look in to the early career of Pink Floyd and their brilliant founder,Syd Barrett. This is the most common footage of Syd because it has been released to the public,a great place to start for anyone interested in "The Madcap".
