- A documentary on The Who, featuring interviews with the band's two surviving members, Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey.
- Originally formed in Cork, Ireland in 1966 by Rory Gallagher, Taste had a brief but influential career, releasing two studio albums in 1969 and 1970 and disbanding shortly after their legendary appearance at the 1970 Isle Of Wight Festival, which is the centerpiece of this film. The core of "What's Going On" is the band's performance at the festival on August 28th but it is encapsulated by a documentary on the history and importance of Taste and setting the scene for their Isle Of Wight Festival appearance. This features contributions from Rory Gallagher's brother Donal along with Brian May (Queen), The Edge (U2), Bob Geldof and renowned guitarist Larry Coryell. Rory Gallagher would go on to enjoy an acclaimed and highly successful solo career and this electrifying show by Taste is an early example of Rory's justified reputation as the ultimate live performer.
- Blue Wild Angel: Jimi Hendrix Live At The Isle Of Wight documents the guitarist's legendary performance before 600,000 people at this massive outdoor music and arts festival in August 1970. This unforgettable concert film experience draws heavily upon Academy Award winning Director Murray Lerner's vast archive of previously unseen performance footage and presents some of Hendrix's finest ever concert performances, including extended takes of "Machine Gun," "Red House," and other favorites such as "All Along The Watchtower," "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)," and a unique medley of "God Save The Queen" and "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band." New interviews with Jimi Hendrix Experience band members Mitch Mitchell, Billy Cox, and others set the stage for the concert footage that follows.
- Forty summers ago on a windswept island just off England's southern coastline, a young Canadian folksinger-songwriter-poet-novelist named Leonard Cohen delivered the performance of a lifetime.
- The year is 2004 and Ian Anderson is reflecting on the night he performed with Jethro Tull at the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970.
- He can't walk down the streets of Harlem without people yelling his name. He can't count the number of NBA stars he schooled. He can't pay his phone bill. "Big in the Mind" tells the story of the most gifted basketball wizard ever to work his magic on the asphalt of the Big Apple. Whether it was scoring fifty points against "Dr. J" Julius Erving at the famed Rucker Tournament, or being drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers despite never even playing high school basketball (and then turning them down), the legend of Joe "The Destroyer" Hammond lives on in the streets of Harlem-even as Joe struggles to survive.
- A look at the Brazil military coup of 1964, and how the 20 years that followed affected musicians, with some jailed or exiled, and political voices giving rise to a new form of music: "Tropicalia".
