Re: Looking for Music Documentary Recommendations
Good list. Also:
Louie Bluie (mandolin player, Howard Armstrong)
Standing in The Shadows of Motown (similar to Wrecking Crew)
The Last Waltz (The Band)
Blues (miniseries, Scorcese)
Jazz (miniseries, Ken Burns)
Hail, Hail Rock 'n Roll (Chuck Berry)
The T.A.M.I. Show (not a documentary but an enjoyable 1964 rock concert film)
Robert Johnson's mother, describing blues musicians:
"I never did have no trouble with him until he got big enough to be round with bigger boys and off from home. Then he used to follow all these harp blowers, mandoleen (sic) and guitar players."
Lomax, Alan, The Land where The Blues Began, NY: Pantheon, 1993, p.14.
