The interview clips that start the film are better than par for the course for this genre thanks to the diverse ways various figures view Miles' electric period. Thankfully, Lerner then presents the entire magnificent Isle of Wight set uninterrupted. The brief return to interview footage to end the film is a drag; the homages to Miles would have been better placed at the very beginning.
