Arthur Rovozzo
This film project is the brainchild of “Musical Myriad” host Arthur Rovozzo, WECS Radio, 90.1FM.
Arthur’s extensive musical knowledge and passion for historical roots has led to the development of this unique 5-part series.
As Arthur describes:
“On March 28th at The Packing House we're featuring The Doors. The Doors have been one of those groups that have fascinated mystified and frustrated their fans both during the group’s active years and after their dissolution. Part of the frustration was and is related to vocalist Jim Morrison's extremely unpredictable unreliable nature.
The other side of the coin being the irony that a band, composed of former film school students, did not always have themselves filmed effectively! Be that as it may, we plan to take a look at clips from throughout the group’s prime years. On an early tour there were black-and-white sequences of performances from when the band was co-headlining shows with the Jefferson Airplane. Other occasions found a group filmed in action in color, with underrated guitarist Robbie Krieger well featured. The performance moods are all over the map, a Doors tradition."
We have compiled and will screen a selection of unique and relevant historic music related films from January thru May. This series is intended to share the journey and evolution of contemporary rock and blues from the sixties forward.
Join us for the screening of this musical journey. This project is a part of the EC-CHAP Friday Film Series hosted by the Eastern Connecticut Center for History, Art, and Performance (EC-CHAP), a 501.3.c non-profit membership-based cultural organization.
