What is the whole film about? And those youth riots after Stones footage, is that still related to the Stones? At least Ove Tingvall - who co-wrote a nice swedish Stones book I own but unfortunately can't read...

The color footage is from March 1966.

If the color footage is from 1966, -from where and when? The Stones did not perform in Sweden in 1966?

The sound guy recorded the gig with (then) stellar equipment, and was approached by Mick who said he couldn't do that. He fooled Mick by un-socketing a different cable (did I get this right?).
He said the show was all shambles. No one kept the beat, and the singing was horrible (the recording proves him wrong, though).

They said:
Sven had his own sound company and was hired as sound guy at the concert. To also record the show was natural -- to him. "I had two JBL speakers and a tape recorder and I recorded this." [cuts to Stones on stage] "It was the most unorganized group I had seen. Jeez. When they started playing ... I mean ... not even that drummer kept the beat. Everybody were off beat, it was a clutter, it was terrible. And then when they [the audience] started screaming it was miserable. But I had to bear with it. Mick came down there and saw me recording and said 'oh, you can't do that'. And I said, 'oh, well then I'll take this out'. It was no discussion. [Unintelligible sentence not texted ... sounds like "we were allowed to stay" or something] It wasn't much to do. I had had more fun. [laughs]"
