The filmed account of a large Canadian rock festival train tour boasting major acts. In the summer of 1970, a chartered train crossed Canada carrying some of the world's greatest rock bands. The Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, The Band, Buddy Guy, and others lived (and partied) together for five days, stopping in major cities along the way to play live concerts. Their journey was filmed.

Great movie. Woodstock on a train. Seeing footage of Pigpen of GD is a real treat.

Seeing and hearing Janis Joplin perform, made this documentary worth watching. What a singer she was.

Imagine the Woodstock after-party taking place on a train, for a whole week, stopping to jam for crowds of stoned Canadians along the way. Great concert and jam footage, but pretty underwhelming overall (minus Janis and Buddy, of course). Catch the Woodstock film instead...

Some great footage of both the concerts and the jams on the train, but its a short movie, and left me wanting to see more of the performances. Overall, pretty awesome, though.

A must-see for anyone with a penchant for jam-rock or honkey tonk. Festival Express shows you performances, on and off stage, many of which crackle with raw music passion and rarely paralelled talent. Janis Joplin steals the show with a rendition of "Cry, Baby" that would knock the boots off John Wayne. Jerry Garcia and the Dead do exactly what they do best, transporting you to a warm sunny place. The Band prove they're one of the most underrated groups of all time. Buddy Guy is a man among boys. The story of the concert series promotion and the various snafus that threaten to sink it are less interesting than the pure pleasure of seeing the players enjoying a luxury and comraderie they rarely had the opportunity for in those days of protest and shuttle buses. In the end, it would have been nice to see and hear the musicians in more intimate moments, when they're not performing. We don't really learn anything about anybody we didn't already know. But at heart this movie is more homage than revelation. It's a long, strange trip - and a welcome one.
