I came across this DVD yesterday, quite by accident. It's "through the camera of Bob Dylan's drummer Mickey Jones". Not many clear shots of Bob himself but, but for those like myself, who were present at some of the concerts, it contains a lot of fascinating, atmospheric background information.

Can't comment on the DVD but I have a two CD box set of that tour and it rocks...

This is available in the UK, to rent from choiceserental there are also a whole load of music DVDs from Clarence Ashley & Doc Watson to Steve Earl & Townes Van Zandt, the "bringing it all back home" documentary and a lot more.

I thought that one of the most interesting things on the DVD was Mickey Jones' assertion that it was not Dylan, or any member of the Band, who shouted "play fucking loud". He believes that it was in fact one of the stage hands. Wonder what Dylan himself might have to say on the subject!

Plus, a good example of Dylan's humour - one time when he was introducing "Ballad of a Thin Man" he turned to Mickey, who was, and still is, a very big guy, and said "nothing personal Mickey"!
