sheez. this is great, only halfway through but i had to comment. It's great to see him in action in his prime this is obviously before the divorce, he seems to be walking on air!) - and it shows you how unusual his playing style was, how he did all of his effects... I think he's gaffer taped a pickup to his acoustic. Such a contrast to that latter-day video you posted
