I guess there was a reason why this video was never released and bet it had alot to do with Ray not wanting it out. But since someone decided it had to be released then at least make it a worthwhile production. It would have been nice to know where he was performing at because I could have swore that each edit was of Ray performing somewhere else, but where?(I know that it was israel...dah!) Also, who was Ray visiting? What locations did he visit inbetween performances? But hurt the most was that the recording was from an LP and not directly from the footage of the tape. The only good thing I was able to make 0ut of this performance was that the film showed Ray constantly pushing the band tempo wise, and giving directions on what songs to play. The band was dragging a bit, probably due to Jet Lag(Guess*$*&&%). This is what happens after a renowned entertainer dies, not while he's alive. Come on Ray JR! You shouldn't do your father this way!
