Abstract In 1966, CBC Television invited some of North America's greatest blues performers to gather in a studio in Toronto. The artists were recorded together and individually in sessions that lasted three days. The result was originally televised as part of the CBC "Festival" series. Most of these artists are gone now, but 30 years later, the session video tapes have been found, restored and re-edited. Host, Canadian blues star, Colin James takes us on a personally guided tour of these classic performances.
Cast Muddy Waters & Band, Otis Spann, Mable Hillery, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee, Sunnyland Slim, Willie Dixon.
