pretty impressed so far. will take notes on saturdays re-viewing. but for now want to look into that wild older folkie jamin with the zither (w/ three names) and over the top song styling doing that traditional number. also him sitting at the hammond organ making it squonk like a harmonica on "blowing in the wind"? in a live performance. also the over lay of non ownership of the songs as the scene existed at the time. the dave van ronk episode over house of the rising sun. and all the other examples the director made sure to use. that and the directors use of found footage. some footage paralled 1965 pennebaker documentary. then contrast that with the ownership-nes of columbia and grossman that meant being big time, at the top of the music game.
