Rise Of A Texas Bluesman | Stevie Ray Vaughan | Amplified
Film revealing and dissecting the formative years of Stevie Ray Vaughan's career and his place within Texas blues. In the early 1970s, a young guitarist from Austin, Texas began to make his name on the local blues circuit, committed as he was to a musical form much thought outdated. A decade on, that same guitarist became an international superstar.
Rural Blues (Documentary)
December 1989, Ko de Korte and Tom Haarsma from The Netherlands, went to Mississippi searching for blues musicians playing the old rural blues. The aim was to record their music on cassette tapes, but they also had a small Super-VHS camera. The registrations took place in the homes of the musicians, sometimes in their bedroom. After visiting 18 musicians in 2 weeks they came back with a lot of audio tapes and 14 hours of video. November 2013, Ko de Korte and Dutch J den Hollander decided to edit a documentary of the footage. Seventeen musicians have died now, among them are Rule Burnside and T-model Ford.
