Thanks HB, I had no idea that this film existed. I a bout immediate over excitement I went online looking for a copy to purchase, but am having troub establising whether it is only only avaiable in region 1 or whether there are all regions versions (mixed messages on the grapevine) - anyone know? (Of course, a region 2 recording would suit me just fine if there are any)

Thanks

Bod,

You can buy it here - not easy to get hold of (unless you buy it direct from Amazon.com).


European copies are region free - according to the Amazon website..

It's like Buena Vista Social club - but for the blues

I've just ordered a copy too...

Thanks honeyboy, great stuff, my order is now in

I love RL's "Wish I was in heaven sittin' down" CD, esp. Hard Time killing floor where he talks about the father, uncles and cousins who were murdered in Chicago. powerful stuff

Looks great! ......Amazon should do an MM Forum discount

Reminds me of Les Blank's 'The Sun Is Gonna Shine' and Robert Palmer & Robert Mugge's 'Deep Blues'.

Shine On
Michael.
