I’m not sure if you can watch this in the UK or elsewhere, but the SIXTY YEARS OF ARHOOLIE - AN ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION is on YouTube here:
Enjoy it while you can.

Brilliant. I watched it while Best Beloved was doing the Tesco Shuffle. (That's called drawing the long straw!) She has said she'd like to see it too tonight. Who am I to complain?
Taj was great, as was Ryland. I was trying to concentrate on Bonnie Rait's finger work too, she played a tantalisingly slow intro for us to see.
Many thanks for this heads-up.

I cried oooh Wee Baby from Laredo to San Antonio....
Great stuff, reminds me why music is so great, the Blues got me on the hook and all the other stuff from Tex Mex to Scared steel keeps reeling me in.

Just scanned through this again and I just keep going back to Mr. Cooder doing Sloppy Drunk - bloody wonderful!

This is a wonderful film, really beautifully put together. So many great artists paying tribute to Arhoolie Records. It's a wonderful thing that Chris Strachwitz did for all of us.

That's very sensible of them. Remove it before it gets bootlegged and shared across the planet, which will happen anyway.
I wouldn't be surprised if they re-edit it and sell it as a DVD.

Ha go-o-o-ne! They already removed at least one bootleg of Ry Cooder's segment - I think - from youtube. I wonder if besides bootlegged performances there will be some attempts to recreate his 9 string by afficionados of his equipment...
Stay safe! H

Harriet, I'm already eying up my old Harmony archtop with it's dislocated neck. The big problem is the original Bigsby pickup - one of those jobbies will cost the same as a handful of guitars. PS: I think it's a seven string but my eyes ain't what they used to be.
