Ian Tyson
This is My Sky
At 77, Canadian country legend Tyson feels he's "coming to the end of the trail." So, in this low-key doc, the cowboy retraces his steps, reminiscing about Dylan with ex-wife Sylvia, jamming with pals like Gordon Lightfoot and David Wilcox, and playing his classics in a Calgary church with the help of Rhonda Vincent and John Hiatt. As honest and down-to-earth as the man himself.
RATING: 3.5 (out of 5)

From Ian's Site -this description;

This two-disc collector's edition captures Ian Tyson's life and music through an original authorized documentary and his first official concert video in more than two decades.
The documentary takes fans on a musical odyssey through five decades of his career - from folk to country to cowboy roots.
The collection includes riveting performances of some of his greatest songs, filmed at the historic Knox United Church in Calgary.
