GUEST,Felix John Fahey Docufilm: In Search of Blind Joe Death (62* d) RE: John Fahey Docu due out in Feb 2009 29 Nov 09


I agree with Daniel.
I am french and John Fahey died when I was only 18 so I obviously hadn't had the chance to meet him or follow his life and records directly, so I know very little about his life.
I've been listening to his records with love for 3 years now, probably 1/12 of the time must of you people have been loving his records.
When I heard about this documentary, I was very excited to be able to finally learn more about John Fahey's life; then I came across that all business between mr Minsker and mr Rosenthal.

Needless to say that mr Rosenthal's reaction seems more than agressive and selfish. I can understand that he lives that whole thing from a very personnal point of view, but he has to understand that this documentary is not only awaited by a few people in Takoma.
There is an international audience, I'm a part of it, and it's sad that we still can't see this movie.

anyway, i too :
WAITING FOR THE FILM
