Music With Pictures - Recommend a Good 'un
I'm surprised that this hasn't been done yet in an (albeit new) AV section on a hi-fi forum.
So how about telling us about your favourite music based films?
Some of mine:
The Pixies (including the documentary Loud, Quiet, Loud)
Love - 'The Forever Changes Concert'
The Jimi Hendrix Experience - 'Live at Monterey'
Martin Scorsese Presents The Blues: A Musical Journey

I'm Nick.
Nic Roeg's 'Glastonbury Fayre' documentary from 1971
DA Pennebaker's 'Monterey Pop Festival 1967'.
The Complete DVD Set includes virtually all the footage shot, including a lot of stuff that never made the initial cut.
'The Soft Machine - Alive In Paris'
Bill Evans - 'Live At The Maintenance Shop', 1979 (not sure this has been officially released yet, but it should be)
Woodstock has to be mentioned... a bloody fantastic film.

Slagged off for years but in recent times ( compared to the dross that masquerades as entertainment nowdays) it has come to be regarded as a cult classic. Queen's music fits the visuals like a glove, Melody Anderson is cute and I would crawl over broken glass to get to Ornella Muti
Ideally you want to get the special edition as Brian Blessed's commentary is outstandingly funny.

Broken Glass, the one with Hazel O'Connor in, is a really good film.
