'The American Folk Blues Festival 1962-1969.' This is Volume three of a three part set on DVD.  Great black and white footage of various Blues musicians. Huge names in the history of The Blues playing on each others songs. Live recordings in small television studios during a European tour. I love the imagery that goes with each song.

Other highlights …. Skip James performing 'All Night Long' and Koko Taylor singing 'Wang Dang Doodle.'
