rating: 5 QuoteIF YOU LIKE THE BLUES..... BUY THIS!!! IT WILL REALLY GROW ON YOU!!!Quote
I'v been avoiding writing a review about these dvd's (American Folk & blues festival vol 1, Vol 2, vol 3,) for a while now, mainly because I get so emotional when I think about them. So I wont even try. But I will say this much....The ONLY place in the world where you can see the fabulous T-Bone Walker on dvd... is on these sets (he appears on all 3 volumes). And where else are you gonna see Lonnie Johnson, Shakey Horton, Junior Wells, Big Joe Williams, Willie Dixon, Otis Span, Sonny Boy Williamson, Big Mama Thorton, A very young Buddy Guy, and a very young Hubert Sumlin, Big Joe Turner, Son House, Koko Tayler, Lightnin Hopkins, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, Howlin Wolf, AND MANY MORE!!! YOU NEED TO HAVE ALL 3 VOLUMES FOR YOUR COLLECTION!

Worth having this film that was recorded live on the European tour. Far superior to volume 1, but not quite as good as volume 3. January 5, 2007

These performances are great as well.The product quality is exceptional in every sense. Sonny-Boy had a bit too much whiskey that night( as he was sometimes prone to do), but Lightnin' Hopkins, Sonny Terry/Brownie McGhee, Howling Wolf, and Magic Sam are sharp as razors! Please buy this collection, and treasure it. Those days, and heroes, are gone. Here, in this medium, they live on! August 25, 2005

Excellent DVD great coverage of Blues artists performing in Europe in the 60's and msot of them in their prime. Very good camera work and sound. August 16, 2005

rating: 5 QuoteIt's Magic Sam on DVDQuote
The bonus section featuring Magic Sam is the most incredible piece of footage I've ever seen or heard. It's even better than his studio stuff and the audio quality is awesome (which can't always be said for his live records and bootlegs though the performances are still downright unbelievable). What can you say about Magic Sam to someone who has never heard him? For me, at least, it was like watching Robert Johnson perform. Magic Sam was the best to ever sing or play the electric blues and unfortunately this footage predates his death by only a few months. What a loss. March 20, 2005
