"Combination of the Two" performed live at Montery closes out this clip from the documentary DVD "Nine Hundred Nights." It was not included in the Pennebaker concert film "Monterey Pop." Instead, a lingering powerful closeup of Janis singing "Ball and Chain" was used to represent Big Brother and the Holding Company's performance at this landmark 1967 festival. Also here, surviving band members Sam Andrews, David Getz and Peter Albin discuss the good and the bad of their experiences at Monterey. The documentary this clip is taken from, "Nine Hundred Nights," also features interviews with James Gurley, Janis Joplin, Nick Gravenites, Lenny Kaye and Ellen Willis, with narration by Rip Torn. Produced by Toby Byron of Multiprises LLC. Directed by Michael Burlingame of the Control Group.

  • this "monterey pop" movie is'nt the same as the dvd produced by lou adler "the complete monterey pop festival", is it?

  • It is, though the new one contains outtake performances, more Jimi and Otis Redding, and commentary that wasn't in the original.

  • what does the guy at the end exactly say, i can't understand him...

  • That's Dave Getz, the drummer. He's saying how excited the band was to be in this big movie-- Monterey Pop-- but when they went to the premiere "it was just Janis. The band wasn't in the movie."

  • what song were they performing?

  • "Combination of the Two"
