"Super Night of Rock 'n' Roll has a point...that rock is rebellious fun." - NY Times
Super Night of Rock and Roll represents the definitive live soundtrack to 3 decades of Rock history.
Recorded at the legendary Hollywood Palladium in 1984, Super Night features jaw-dropping live performances from Chuck Berry, James Brown, Jefferson Starship, Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, The Tempations, Ronnie Spector, Martha Reeves amongst many other rock titans.
The show was an overwhelming success, praised by the New York Times for "Skillfully ransacking the archives."
The highlights are many. A show-stopping Frankie Valli, Martha Reeves, Darlene Love and Ronnie Spector medley comprised of hits such as "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You", "Heatwave", "Walk Like a Man" and "Big Girls Don't Cry" recalls the respective artists in the prime of their careers. Rock guitar pioneer Chuck Berry comes across as vital and effervescent, performing his Billboard chart-toping hit "Roll Over Beethoven" with formidable Rock 'n' Roll attitude. Jefferson Starship brings the house down with "Somebody To Love", a song Rolling Stone ranked 274th on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
Featured also are the legendary funk- master James Brown, soul institution The Temptations, The Hollies, and X.
