Festival Express

I just watched the DVD "Festival Express" about a 1970 tour via train with participants such as Janis Joplin, the Grateful Dead, the Band, Shanana. Man, that is some heavy s**t! If you are a fan of empassioned music and uninhibited expression, you've got to check this out. Stellar performances by all those bands mentioned above and more. It is what it was (is) all about. Check it out. What do you think?

Great stuff!!! Gotta say that Janis is amazing - you really get a feel for her. But the whole thing is a great postcard with improbable performers: Buddy Guy, Ian and Sylvia, Flying Burrito Brothers (WITHOUT Gram Parsons), etc.
