The film documents the origins of the American swamp rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival and their 1970 European tour, culminating in an April 14, 1970, performance at London's Royal Albert Hall. The movie takes its name from the band's song "Travelin' Band".

A 40-minute history narrated by actor Jeff Bridges documents the band's formation in El Cerrito, California, their early efforts under as Tommy Fogerty & the Blue Velvets and The Golliwogs, and their signing by Fantasy Records.[2] At the time they toured Europe, the Beatles broke up, leaving Creedence as, as Bridges puts it, "the biggest group in the world."

The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie

Poirot.jpg?cnt=0&profile=RESIZE_400x 

A multi-cast audio adaptation of Agatha Christie’s debut novel, THE MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR AT STYLES, starring Peter Dinklage as the legendary Hercule Poirot.

England, 1914. The world is at war. Captain Hastings, injured and shaken, is invited to Styles Court to recover. It’s a grand old country house - the family home of his old friend - and a perfect haven. Or so it seems. But in the blistering summer heat, trouble is afoot. Simmering tensions are tearing the family apart, and it all comes to a head in the most horrifying way. Emily Inglethorp, the wealthy matriarch of the family, is brutally murdered in the middle of the night. And nobody at Styles is above suspicion. Anyone could have killed Emily - from her ambitious American husband to her distinguished but troubled sons John and Lawrence, her old friend Evie Howard and young ward Cynthia Murdoch.

Captain Hastings is desperate to solve the mystery and protect the family from the terrible speculation of the press. And he knows just the man they need: a brilliant Detective Hastings once knew, who just happens to be staying in the village. His insight and method are exceptional - and his suit is flawless. He goes by the name of Hercule Poirot.
