So in a strong sense, the whole African vibe we get from that era of the band comes from (or probably comes from) Peter Beard! I assume that all the travel journal verbiage on the sleeves is from Peter's records, but maybe not. Whose would it be? A lot of it pertains to Village Recorder & Los Angeles. When the album came out, we fans spent hours -- no, weeks -- calling all those phone numbers.
The movie is available on disc.

hmmm, I didn't know that. Interesting. Is Beard credited on the album? I thought the artist credited had another name...
