GUEST,Daniel	John Fahey Docufilm: In Search of Blind Joe Death (62* d)	RE: John Fahey Docu due out in Feb 2009	18 Jul 09
Marc Minsker, please reply as to why this film (minus the contested 2 second clip) hasn't found another venue. I grew up in DC, and as a 14 year old worked as a waiter dishwasher at the Ontario Place where in addition to Fahey, I had the good fortune to hear Mississippi John Hurt, Son House, holy Modal Rounders and many others. I for one find it very disappointing that an aging adelphi records ceo chooses to stand in the way of this film being made available. Looking out for artists rights is one thing, but unless I'm missing something, the contested footage isn't even in the film. What's the holdup? Are there other ownership issues? Recut that trailer without the 2 seconds and put it back up or explain why this is not possible. WAITING FOR THE FILM
