Just watched this DVD, having got it for Christmas, and I enjoyed every minute of it. I was expecting a basic concert film with maybe a couple of backstage scenes - you know the sort of thing - but this is far more than that. It's a proper documentary, running through Cale's career, including old photos and film and anecdotes, as well as visits to old haunts in Tulsa and interviews with his entourage and his long-serving tour band. Eric Clapton also makes regular affectionate contributions throughout.

All through the film J J Cale comes across as the cool and relaxed guy one would expect from his legend, but he's also got a constant twinkle in his eye and a smile and a handshake for everyone.

There's actually only a handful of live songs with the full band, which surprised me, but there's music playing all the way through and there's plenty of footage of just Cale and a guitar, which is plenty satisfying for me.

Definitely recommended to any fan, past, present or future.

Having been allowed behind the scene access during this tour, I have to say that everything you see in these videos truly portrays JJ Cale in the most accurate way possible.

The film moves slow, sometimes to the point of boring. But, that's the "laid back" feel you're supposed to get. Waiting for a train to pass, sitting in a parking lot playing guitar. This is the calm, relaxed way John leads his life. Definitely something to look up to considering his financial wealth.

The interviews with Eric Clapton are great. He puts Cale on a pedestal (so to say) and credits him properly. I admire that.

This film has finally been released in the US as well and definitely worth a look for those interested in the Tulsa Sound, the roots of popular music, and of course, JJ Cale himself.

I still remember stories about J.J. Cale coming on stage, tuning his guitar and starting to play while the audience didn't realize he was on already, or that he took off time to stay away from the world (I'm not sure if they meant the entertainment world, or the world altogether) and his music is always nice to hear. 'Laid-back' is a good word for it, if not perfect, but I must admit I've never bought one of his albums. 'Cocaine' is a classic.

This documentary must be great to watch for his fans, me - I just liked it. I didn't see the 167 minutes cut (does that exist?), nor did I see 90 minutes cut, no, Dutch television deemed it just fine to kill it after about 55 minutes... thanks but no thanks.

Anyway, it was a bit of everything; Cale on tour, Cale at his birth house, Cale's history (mostly his time in California), Cale talking about his sound and of course, Clapton talking about his (Cale's) sound. And some live footage, which was nice again.

All in all... yes, pretty nice. A laid-back 7 out of 10.
