Also check out the PBS series "The Blues" which premiers on PBS September
28th at 9:00 pm.
Under the guiding vision of Executive Producer Martin Scorsese, seven
directors will explore the blues through their own personal styles and perspectives.
The films in the series are motivated by a central theme: how the blues
evolved from parochial folk tunes to a universal language.
The seven-part film series includes:
Feel Like Going Home by Martin Scorsese
The Soul of a Man by Wim Wenders
The Road to Memphis by Richard Pearce
Warming by the Devil's Fire by Charles Burnett
Godfathers and Sons by Marc Levin
Red, White & Blues by Mike Figgis
Piano Blues by Clint Eastwood
