Unseen Dylan

Bob Dylan 1966 World Tour: The Home Movies Through the Camera of Drummer Mickey Jones Available on DVD October 31, 2006
Through MVD Visual

MVD Visual and Highway 61 Entertainment announce the home viewing release of Bob Dylan – 1966 World Tour: The Home Movies for worldwide distribution on DVD.

For the first time on home video, musician- turned-actor Mickey Jones chronicles the legendary 1966 Bob Dylan World Tour through his recently discovered home movies! With a set of drum sticks and his 8 mm color home movie camera, Mickey Jones toured the world in 1966 with Bob Dylan and The Band. He captured on film what became known as the tour that changed Rock and Roll forever - when Dylan traded in his acoustic guitar for an electric sound. This new version includes new, exculsive interviews with Charlie Daniels discussing his 1970’s Dylan album recordings, Johnny Rivers and Trini Lopez discussing Dylan’s influence on their music, 1966 World Tour soundman Richard Alderson on the tour sound, and Mickey Jones with new revelations, including the surprising truth about Play F#@%ing Loud!", contradicting the conclusion in Scorcese’s No Direction Home.
