Festival (1967)
A great music film in a pivotal time.

I have not seen this film for many years. It's not on video as far as I know, but it should be, because it should be seen by anybody who's interested in the evolution of music, folk & popular, in the US in the 1960's. See this, then see Monterey Pop, then Woodstock. It not only has a number of great blues artists who are now deceased (Howlin' Wolf, Paul Butterfield, Mike Bloomfield, to name some popular ones), but the magic (or catastrophic, depending on your outlook) moment when Dylan "went electric" in a big venue (Maggie's Farm, etc.).
