By the 1970s taboos were beginning to fall from society, but many taboos were still firmly in place. In 1977 Mother's Finest released their now much-sought after album "Mother's Finest" that included the song "Niggizz Can't Sing Rock And Roll". This title shocked and scandalized the church community: An influential and powerful preacher read the band the riot act and so they decided to remove the song from their live act. The song, however, expressed exactly what the group felt, because what the band founders wanted in 1974 - Joyce "Baby Jean" Kennedy and Glen "Doc" Murdoch - was to create a mixture of black funk and white rock 'n' roll, so as to win over black and white audiences.
When MOTHER'S FINEST opened the second Rockpalast night on 4 March 1978 at the Grugahalle in Essen, they were completely unknown in Europe. That evening, however, they achieved cult status - a status they have kept until today. MOTHER'S FINEST overwhelmed the unsuspecting audience with the songs typical of their style - "Give You All The Love" (1977), "Baby Love" (1977) and "Mickey's Monkey" (1978).
In 1984 the band split up but 25 years later MOTHER'S FINEST once again performed at the Rockpalast - almost with the same crew. On 20 July they played a concert at Satzvey Castle, which included classics as well as exciting new numbers. Both of these concerts are presented on this DVD in full.
