American Masters Troubadours Carole King & James Taylor on PBS & its website
I have my Tivo set up with a Season Pass for the PBS show - American Masters. The most recent episode is called Troubadours: Carole King & James Taylor and the rise of the Singer-Songwriter. The show has some old clips and some recent footage of a bunch of singer songwriters who played at the Troubadour in LA in the late 60s & early 70s, including Jackson Brown, Elton John Joni Mitchell, etc. I haven't watched the whole program yet, but my favorite part so far is Jackson Brown playing a bit of Dylan's I Want You. For folks in the US, check your local PBS station - they may still be showing it this week as a 2 hr show with breaks for fund-raising. For others, you may be able to watch it online at http://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters ... film/1798/
