I could not find any videos from this album and I was not going to insult you with videos from The Last Waltz or The Basement Tapes but you can listen to "Before The Flood" here: "Before The Flood" / The Band`s Home Page. Bob said he did n`t like this tour, he thought that he was just playing a part, sort of a characterization of himself.....Well is that not what all entertainers do? Despite what Bob thinks, this is a great live album and deserves a worthy spot in your collection! ~G~
