"At the Rainbow" film footage

[edit]

About 40 minutes of film from this concert were shown on "Rock Concert," a 1973 Brazilian TV show produced by Rede Globo. Some of the themes are mistitled, and a portion of the flute solo from "Answers? Questions! Questions? Answers!" is shown at the beginning with voiceover (in Portuguese), describing the band and its members. None of the film with Akkerman's guitar improvisation on this theme was shown on the program. In a recent Focus biography written by Peet Johnson it is mentioned that guitarist Jan Akkerman owns the physical film footage of the entire concert, but, due to his personal acrimony with flautist/organist Thijs van Leer, he will not release it commercially. The Brazilian TV show has been uploaded on YouTube for over a decade. 24.246.125.95 (talk) 15:32, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
