The TV Talkin' VCD Collection
Given the paucity of material available through official channels on DVD, it's not suprising there's a healthy selection of digital video being developed by collectors on VCD to ensure the material available today isn't lost. The following details the TV Talkin' VCD collection.
Check out the TV Talkin' VCD trading policy for more info.
I also have a list of Leonard Cohen, Beatles, Bjork and other VCDs here.

I'm keen to acquire any Dylan video that's missing from my lists and will be pleased to trade video or VCD/DVD for what you might have.
I'm also keen to get some good Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell films, so could also trade for these.

What is VCD and can I play it on my DVD player/PC?

For more help with the VCD media check out the VCD section of the dvdrhelp.com website.
All TV Talkin' VCDs are in PAL format unless otherwise stated. They should play on any PC DVD drive (with appropriate software) and on compatible home DVD players.

I don't have anything to trade - can I buy copies of the VCDs?

I prefer to trade and my VCDs aren''t for sale, but recognising that everyone has to start somewhere, plus the fact there's very little Dylan that I haven't got now, I will provide VCDs
in return for a small donation towards the maintenance of the site - please contact me for details (don't forget to mention which country you're based in - I'm in the UK). I prefer donations via PayPal, but can be flexible. PayPal users can order directly using my PayPal Ordering Cart.

The press conference was held on 3 December 1965 at the KQED-TV studios in San Fransisco and was broadcast live. (51 minutes)

Eat The Document
No tour created as much controversy and artistic debate as Bob Dylan's 1966 tour of Europe. Bombarded with shouts of "Judas" and "traitor" from his once loyal folkies, Dylan was transforming his music and himself with ferocious electricity. No longer was he the scruffy, socially relevant folk singer they idolized: his clothes were mod, his lyrics oblique, and the music loud. Dylan, the heir apparent to Woody Guthrie, had embraced rock 'n' roll.
The enveloping madness was captured by Don't Look Back filmmaker Donn Pennebaker and later edited by Dylan himself with compatriot Howard Alk into Eat the Document--an extraordinary look into the artist's psyche.
