The filmed account of a large Canadian rock festival train tour boasting major acts. In the summer of 1970, a chartered train crossed Canada carrying some of the world's greatest rock bands. The Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, The Band, Buddy Guy, and others lived (and partied) together for five days, stopping in major cities along the way to play live concerts. Their journey was filmed.
Directed by Frank Cvitanovich and Bob Smeaton

Such an interesting concept for a tour but man did this leave a lot to be desired. Boring camera work and a refusal to go in depth into any one thing made this a chore to get through, too.
