Filmed by Jim "Speedy" Kelly, this is the longest ever super 8 film of Max Webster (eight 50-foot reels), and quite possibly the best footage of them in existence - the bands antics during Toronto Tontos that have been the things of legend are captured here for posterity. It is the only vintage film of much length with Mike Tilka in the band.

Jim's extensive collection of film reels ended up in the safe hands of Rob and Phil at the Speedy's Films YouTube channel:

Gracious thanks to them for lending me the reels to digitize. The transfer of the silent footage was done in 4K, and I synced the audio from various audience recordings from the period. Enjoy this unique piece of music history !
