I ordered the dvd when it came out which has a second DVD of more performances. Tom Rush is one I recall who doesn't perform in the movie version. I understand "Ten Years After" was on the tour, but wouldn't release their material. That gave me pause to wonder why... There are two performances by "The Band" that I especially enjoy. The energy and tightness of the group thrills me. Buddy Guy performs on and off stage in concert. And they have cars set up with equipment so the bands can jam and Buddy Guy is there too. Janis with her Full Tilt Boogie Band. She does two concert songs in the movie, and there is a part on the train where she and Gerry sing, he has the guitar, there is another guy, who is very out there who I can't recall by name, but they sing together. The first DVD I got, I loaned out and it got lost, but it's something I enjoy so much I bought another. I have someone on the "to loan to list," who I may see next Thursday.
