Hier gehts lang zum Blues

Ich bekomm den Blues, aus Gründen. Zum Glück gibt es selbst für solche Momente den richtigen Soundtrack.

Recorded live for TV broadcast throughout Britain, these historic performances have been unseen for nearly 40 years. Filmed with superb camera work and pristine sound, 14 complete performances and 4 bonus performances are included by Sonny Boy Williamson, Muddy Waters, Lonnie Johnson, Big Joe Williams, Lightnin‘ Hopkins, Sugar Pie DeSanto, Howlin‘ Wolf, Big Joe Turner, Junior Wells, and Sister Rosetta Tharpe.

Between 1963 and 1966 huge British tours were undertaken by the likes of Muddy Waters, Lightnin‘ Hopkins, Howlin‘ Wolf, and Junior Wells. This release in the American Folk-Blues Festivals gathers footage from these tours, providing an amazing document of a historic time.
