  • John Lennon, introduced by Mick Jagger, performs "Yer Blues" with his "Dirty Mac" band—featuring guitarists Keith Richard and Eric Clapton and drummer Mitch Mitchell—shortly after the release of the White Album in 1968. [via Uncut]

  • Biopics about Who drummer Keith Moon, Queen's Freddy Mercury, Janis Joplin, the Ramones' Joey Ramone, Bob Dylan, and Dusty Springfield are all in various stages of production, according to VH1 News.

  • Sly and the Family Stone perform an awesomely funky "Dance to the Music" at the Ohio State Fair Summer Showcase in 1968. "That's kinda groovy bread," notes the show's host as he hands competition winner Sly a $10,000 check. [via Uncut]

  • UK indie-pop group Snow Patrol are both pretty popular and pretty good. But French director Claude Chabrol's C'était un rendez-vous, an amazing one-take short film of a car speeding through empty Paris streets at dawn, is definitely the star of their new video, "Open Your Eyes." [via Very Short List]
