Jimi Hendrix's most experimental album, ELECTRIC LADYLAND features the legendary guitarist using the studio itself as a major instrument to enhance his already adventurous sound. Unfortunately, this sprawling masterpiece would be Hendrix's final studio album before his untimely death in 1970. Featuring classic songs such as Crosstown Traffic, Voodoo Chile, Gypsy Eyes, and All Along the Watchtower, the story of Hendrix's epochal 1968 double album is told in words, music, and rare archival footage. Also included are interviews with Experience bandmates Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell, as well as Steve Winwood (who played organ on the album), and, in his last interview, Chas Chandler, the manager (and former Animals bass player) who nurtured Hendrix's career from its infancy.DVD Features:Region 1Snap CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English

MOULIN ROUGE: Cross LA BOHEME with CABARET, throw in a little bit of RENT, and you might almost begin to describe Baz Luhrmann's visually opulent, fast-paced, funny, heartrending MOULIN ROUGE. The film, which premiered as the opener to the 2001 Cannes Film Festival, is a musical set in 1899 Paris at the notorious Montmartre cabaret club, the Moulin Rouge. Directed by Luhrmann (WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE'S ROMEO AND JULIET, STRICTLY BALLROOM), the movie stars Nicole Kidman as the high-kicking courtesan, Satine; Ewan McGregor as the sensitive poet, Christian; and John Leguizamo as the flamboyant artist and matchmaker, Toulouse-Lautrec. Luhrmann's use of eclectic lighting and saturated color, the fast zooms and quick cuts of his camera, and his magnificent costumes and sets perfectly capture the excess and freneticism for which the Moulin Rouge was famous. Beautifully led by McGregor and Kidman, the flawless supporting cast brings to life the culture of belle epoque Paris with magical realism. Above all, the anachronistic, energetic contemporary soundtrack is what drives MOULIN ROUGE, with popular songs by L'il Kim, Christina Aguilera, David Bowie, and Beck--as well as Kidman and McGregor adding their own superb vocals.ALL THAT JAZZ: Bob Fosse's semi-autobiographical film celebrates show business stripped of glitz or giddy illusions. Joe Gideon (Roy Scheider) is at the top of the heap, one of the most successful directors and choreographers in musical theatre. But he can feel his world slowly collapsing around him--his obsession with work has almost destroyed his personal life, and only his bottles of pills keep him going. As he struggles to right his relationships with his ex-wife, his lover, and his daughter, he also has to cope with his failing health. Soon it's clear he'll have to make a choice: his art--or his life. A talented director and choreographer of both film and stage, Fosse was perhaps best known for helming the film version of CABARET and creating the m
