The group was featured in the film
Festival Express, a documentary about the music festival of the same name that took place in 1970. The shows were scheduled, and the performers traveled by train, across Canada. In the film, Great Speckled Bird performs "
C.C. Rider", along with
Delaney Bramlett and members of the
Grateful Dead. A performance of the
Dylan/
Manuel song "
Tears of Rage", without the aforementioned accompaniment, is included in the extra features of the DVD release. In 1970, the group became the house band for the television show
Nashville North, produced by the
CTV network and filmed at the
CFTO-TV studios in Toronto, which, after one season, became the
Ian Tyson Show. The show ran until 1975. The group backed Ian & Sylvia until the duo parted ways in 1975. They also backed Ian Tyson as a solo artist, for his 1973 debut solo album and his live performances, until 1976. ==Discography==
