Dipping in and out of disc one- the full interviews made for the original I Am What I Am, so people like say Sam, Carl, P,Otis Blackwell, Tom Jones, Jerry Kennedy etc who are on the old film then the full inteviews are here, titled Killer and Those Closest To Him, it's just the person talking, we don't see or hear the interviwer, there are captions of subject discussed and some brief interactive clips for more info
I find it fascinating and well worth getting just for this disc, Frankie, Linda JW Whitten and Mickey all speak for between 10 and 22 mins each and the icing on the cake is that JLL talks articulately and interestingly for just over 30 mins, I won't give away some of the highlights so as not to spoil it for people who buy, surely most JLL fans will support this fascinating extended insight into the man and the people around him
I have not come across any live clips other than the 4 bonus full clips and the original doc (which I haven't played yet), this is probably due to cost and copyright of material used originally, clips tend to be licensed for a certain period after original broadcast and further payments have to be made for an extension, I assume the doc makers filmed the Toronto/Nashville clips under an extended license
Hope this helps, more info as the days go by, it`s a long showwwww

ps re Tony`s query re disc 4 it seems to be scrolling words,biogs and factoids and weblinks that use up the rest of the time on the disc after the 4 live songs ( I've only watched them)
