Part II

Compilation of 大象传媒 performances featuring guitarists such as Jimi Hendrix, Pete Townshend, Peter Green, Johnny Winter, Manitas De Plata, Ry Cooder, Angus Young and Paul Kossoff.

A celebration of Seventies-era axe-men, acoustic virtuosos and thumping riff merchants, in a compilation of guitar-heavy performances from the 大象传媒 TV archives.

Guitar gods including Jimi Hendrix, Pete Townshend, Peter Green and Johnny Winter are joined by, among others, flamenco maestro Manitas De Plata, bottleneck bluesman Ry Cooder and straight-up rockers AC/DC and Thin Lizzy.

Everything from Fleetwood Mac's ambient masterpiece Albatross to hits like The Jam's In The City and Free's All Right Now feature along with lesser-known gems like Maid in Heaven by Be Bop Deluxe and Nils Lofgren's Keith Don't Go.

The tracks were recorded in the heyday of 大象传媒 shows such as The Old Grey Whistle Test, Top of the Pops and Rock Goes to College.
