I met David Hemmings a few years before he passed on. I mentioned what a big impact this movie had on the culture at the time. He was very humble about it. A very cool and decent gentleman.He was still full of fire and passion for acting.

When I saw this at the movies, this was the first time I'd ever heard "Train Kept a Rollin," and it's been one of my favorite songs ever since. The Yardbirds were not the first to play this song, but they made it sound boss; and the movie scene here is terrific.

I saw this movie when it came out. I was 16 and years later when I thought about smashing the guitar I thought it was the Who before they were known in North America. This is the first time I’ve seen it since 1966 and holy shit it was Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck. Amazing.

The director apparently wanted to have The Who for this scene, but they declined. So the Yardbirds got the gig and imitated The Who.

Love it when Beck smashes his hollow body in frustration, then plugs in another guitar and keeps playing- classic. If only the passer-bys on the street knew where that neck came from they would think twice about casting it off.

I'm showing my age but I've been in this exact scene (all except for the guitar smashing part). This is exactly what these "concerts" were like at that time (1966). Nobody dancing, except for the very daring. Everything way up in the head. Entirely cerebral. It took a few years and a lot of dope to reconnect people with their bodies.

The interior scenes were shot inside the Windsor Ricky Tick. The exterior was made up for Oxford Street. (A bit of Antonioni film license) I still have my 1966/67 membership card. Some of the bands we used to see were The Graham Bond Organisation, Zoot Money's Big Roll Band, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers etc. It was the best of times and it was....

Man, how young they were back then, in Jimmy Page's pre-Led Zeppelin days. Page, now 70, is about to receive an honorary degree and deliver the commencement address at Berklee College of Music in Boston. And it was in Boston that Led Zeppelin gave one of their first performances in January 1969, at the psychedelic rock club The Boston Tea Party (now condominiums) in the Back Bay. That gig lasted three hours! (For its press release, check out this link: www.ledzeppelin.com/lzprogrammes/69_boston.html) Incidentally, it was Jeff Beck that smashed up that Hofner guitar in "Blow-Up." Antonioni instructed him to do so in imitation of Pete Townsend of The Who, whom Antonioni really wanted to appear in the film but they declined. He couldn't get the In-Crowd or the Velvet Underground either, so that left The Yardbirds. But they were fabulous, hip, mod! Thanks for posting this!

Famed photographer David Bailey was Antonioni's the role-model for Blow Up, the story of a photographer who can't figure out if he's involved in a murder. Antonioni toys with the photographer's decreasing grip on morality, reality and sanity against the scrim of "Swinging London." The nightclub episode with The Yardbirds may be Antonioni's indictment of Youth Culture. The scene was first optioned to The Velvet Underground and The Who. A young Michael Palin can be seen in the audience.

it's pretty profound in its own little way. in about 4 minutes (less than really) he explained away the whole uselessness of image and status to the hipster crowd (which still exist today in full swing). also its open to multiple interpretations. it's purely poetic compared to literature explaining the same concept.

I heard the Velvet Underground was Antonioni's first choice but couldn't get visas due to a drug conviction. Just as well. The Yardbirds are more suitable for the movie's mod London setting. I love the way you hear the feedback out on the street and the man follows the sound of the feedback to the club.

This is one of my favorite rock 'n roll performances--truly thrilling, but the best thing about this scene, for me, is that the spectators are all staring frozen like narcotized zomboid mannequins, except for the hot devotchka in the silver jacket and cat-in-the-hat pants. The scene feels a little hallucinatory, surreal.

always loved this movie, i cant figure why the main character wanted to take that broken guitar part...it seems an analogy for his life, he reached for things that were not important, he screwed up on the important things like when he allowed Redgrave to steal that roll of film from him...he is angry at himself, for being purposeless, as the kids in the crowd were.

Oh well. It was a a piece of Jeff Beck's guitar neck. I just don't understand why the main character threw the guitar neck out on the sidewalk after he expended so much energy getting it. i actually recall watching this movie years ago, and there never seemed to be any resolution for getting the murder resolved, that the main character caught on film..Maybe I was passing out at the time. Well, maybe I'll watch the whole movie again (snore) to try to make some sense of it.lol :)
