Reviews

I watched one documentary about Robert Johnson that focused entirely on his legendary deal with the devil... which is an interesting part of the story, but that's not really who Robert Johnson was. And I've seen documentaries about Robert Johnson that scorned the mythology about the crossroads and focused entirely on the music... which is just as interesting, certainly more relevant, but that's really only a part of who Robert Johnson was. This one is striking because it balances the two, but it also goes to lengths to try and give the viewer a glimpse into who he was as a man by interviewing people that knew him, were acquainted with him, and had anecdotes to tell the view that weren't about chords, lyrics, or Faustian pacts. That's the documentary about Robert Johnson that I have always wanted to see, but don't think anyone else has ever made. It's almost as magical as his music, and when it does cover his music it dives a little deeper than just his three most popular songs.

The Intimate Duke Ellington

Duke Ellington's fifty year career was full of accomplishments as a highly original pianist, arranger, prolific composer and leader of a timeless orchestra. On occasion he recorded with a small group from his orchestra or as a piano soloist, but Duke was rarely filmed in that capacity... with a few exceptions. On January 23, 1967, Ellington filmed two programs for Danish television. The first has him jamming with an octet taken from his orchestra, including such greats as altoist Johnny Hodges, tenor-saxophonist Paul Gonsalves, baritonist Harry Carney and trumpeter Cat Anderson. Highlights include "The Jeep Is Jumpin'," "Sophisitcated Lady" and "Jam with Sam." The second program puts the focus on Ellington's piano, in solo and trio performances that include "Lotus Blossom," "Mood Indigo," and a definitive version of "Take the 'A' Train." Always a modern and distinctive soloist, Ellington is seen creating brilliant improvisations full of strong melodies, subtle surprises and sly wit.
