Comment from MrBillindallas:

Concert was from a two night run - the last of nine total dates on the NorCal tour. Shot on 16mm film with an audio remote truck in the alley. Movie was released in Europe but not in the US. Great band, at one of the best venues in the 'States, the last two nights of the mini-tour they were truly on fire. One venue was so small the band filled the stage and the dance floor.

I'm sorry to bother but would someone do me the kindness of telling me how one downloads this video. the button at the top "download video" doesn't seem to do anything. Am I missing a step here ? Thanks, appreciate any assistance I can get.

This is surely one of the coolest and smoothest tunes around. Sure wanna have a party when I hear this. Ry Cooder definitely one of the best guitarists around and what a backing band. Great stuff indeed.
