TAMI show this Sunday!

The TAMI show is coming! We really recommend you see this one! Although the TAMI show is one of the best concert films ever made, it almost never screens mostly because of the tiny number of surviving prints that still exist. It's not on DVD or video and probably never will be because of some complex legal entanglements, so this is it guys!

To see James Brown, the Stones, Marvin Gaye when they're so young and raw is truly mindblowing, and we will be showing the lost Beach Boys footage that has been cut out of the prints....courtesy of the Beach Boys! Amazing audience footage, go-go dancers all over the stage,including the incomparable Toni Basil and future starlet Teri Garr.

Record afficianado and master disc jockey Dante Carfagna is being flown out from Chicago to play some rare soul and r+b for the picnic, then its the TAMI show. See you there!

Our First of the Season

Thanks to everyone who came out to The Player last weekend, it was great to see so many Altman fans representing. We're excited to be back for our sixth year and it was great to back on the field with all of you. DJ John Tripp's set was so good, we decided to post a set-list of the records he played. Deep 45s abound in his collection, his years living in New Orleans were not wasted! Thanks John!!
