I've had the "John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band Sweet Toronto" DVD which was released by Pioneer for several years already. It is the DA Pennebaker footage and includes footage of the limo drive to the site. Total runtime 56 minutes. I can't imagine what might be different with this newer release.

Yeah, I have "Sweet Toronto" DVD too (and I have it on VHS format, from years before too) --- I imagine this is just another re-packaging.

How many musical events of John's were "ruined' with her obnoxious noise over the years.... Rolling Stones Circus, Get Back Sessions, Live Peace in Toronto, Lyceum UNICEF event December 1969, One for One Concert, etc. etc. It was a miracle she wasn't standing next to John, shreiking away at the Apple Rooftop performance ....
Wasn't Yoko the reason that John opted out from the Bangla Desh concert, because George only invited John as a solo artist -- not J&Y as a couple ?
