Set 1
R-0041 All I Really Want To Do - recorded live at the Newport Folk Festival, Newport, RI, 26 Jul 1964 (part of the performance on 24 Jul 1965 is also shown)
R-0300 Maggie's Farm - recorded live with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band at the Newport Folk Festival, Newport, RI, 25 Jul 1965
R-0304 Mr. Tambourine Man - recorded live (solo acoustic) at the Newport Folk Festival, Newport, RI, 25 Jul 1965
The film also has fragments from the band soundcheck: organ riffs, Maggie's Farm and Like A Rolling Stone.
"It is a very remarkable film as it very obviously serves as a forerunner to the festival films Monterey Pop and Woodstock in the same way these later bigger festivals followed the annual Newport Jazz and Folk festivals. The film gives a very good impression of the folk music scene to which Dylan came and went and to which he belonged for several years. The editing is perfect, especially the build-up of the now historic scenes featuring Dylan?s 1965 electric appearance alternated with performances by traditional folk acts. Only from this footage and how it was edited for the film you can understand that Dylan had to force his way out of the scene by playing loud electric music."
