Thread Name: John Fahey Docufilm: In Search of Blind Joe Death
Subject: RE: John Fahey Docu due out in Feb 2009
The DVD of IN SEARCH OF BLIND JOE DEATH is now available.

IMO, a lot more research and documentation is needed (interviews,
in-depth analysis of Fahey's music, the various periode in his
musical development, biographical information other that what
Fahey has written, etc.)
This doucment is only 57minutes, and is a good outline for
further study. It has no subtitles, which I believe would
help. Soundtrack is in part not clear, and balance between
questions and replies in the interviews is way off requiring
one to continually adjust the volume.

worth seeing, but there needs to be much more.
