  1. Joni Mitchell was the best of this musical movement. I liked the folk-rock movement (do we include Bob Dylan?) with groups like BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD and artists like Tom Rush.

  2. Mitchell certainly one of the best, and Bob Dylan also has done most of his best work in the folk-rock mode.

  3. As I've noted elsewhere, rarely have I seen a performance, particularly a good performance, from a band as visibly angry, probably with each other and apparently with the French tv people as well, as Fairport in that first concert video.

  4. Perhaps when Donna and I saw Husker Du on their last concert tour. Absolutely no talk from or on the stage, and the band kept turning up the volume after every song.
