It's on Bear Family Records and it's really worth the money. It shows 2 shows - one before "I Walk The Line" when Johnny and his band were pretty stiff in front of the camera. The second show is after "I Walk The Line" became a hit and Johnny and the band are so much looser and put on a great show. Johnny's Elvis impersonation is priceless! If you ever get a chance to go to the Museum of Radio and TV in Beverly Hills, check out the tape of Johnny's TV show in the late 60s. It's phenomonal. The duet he did with Bob Dylan on the show is amazing. While you're there you may want to watch an episode of Hawaiian Eye.
