A must watch for music fans

I'm a huge music enthusiast living in Toronto and i've never heard about this festival. The film is incredible and I had no idea that this event was that important in music history.

It's engaging, entertaining and also wholesome and sweet.

The story itself is so unbelievable and unlikely that it could've only happened in real life.

It's truly unbelievable that such an event took place in Toronto, which, at the time was the number two city in Canada.

This event needs to be celebrated as historic as its magnitudes easily matches that of world-famous festivals of the era.

A must watch for music fans.

"Revival69: The Concert That Rocked the World" offers a lot of great music acts and a peek behind the scenes to see what was going on in Music before the 80's. Our reviewer, actor & director Alex von Roon remembers some of the acts vividly and it is interesting & fun to explore what was going on behind the scenes aside from the yellow press assumptions which had ruled for decades. The balance between interviews and original footage is bearable. "Revival69" is not too opinionated either. The footage has been nicely edited and the artists get a chance to be heard. You will not regret having spend the time to watch this timeless piece & might learn a thing or two about The Doors, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bo Diddley, Gene Vincent, Chicago, and Alice Cooper, as well as last-minute addition - John Lennon...Why the performance of the "Doors" has not been filmed, is beyond me. Maybe it can be found somewhere or put together?
