Go to Roger's blog for a little bit of the background:

Scroll down to Camilla's Roadie Report 21.
Here's an excerpt:
1987
"Tom Petty had a day off from his touring schedule in St. Petersburg, FL and invited Roger to hang out with him at the Don Cesar Hotel. While they were flying kites, Tom mentioned his upcoming tour of Europe with Bob Dylan called "Temples In Flames." Roger told him how much he enjoyed the Rolling Thunder Tour with Bob and that he would love to experience that camaraderie again. Tom said he would ask Bob if Roger could join them. Within the month, Roger received a call from DylanÕs manager and he was on the tour starting in Israel.
"...While Roger was touring, Rickenbacker Guitar was finishing the prototype of the Roger McGuinn 12-string Rickenbacker and had it sent to Wembley for Roger to play for the first time."

Thanks Steve.
Was the footage from a tour documentary or something?
