Bringing It All Back Home.

Documentary which joins former hobo and festival-favourite bluesman, Seasick Steve on a trip back to his old stomping grounds in America's Deep South. Filmed in Mississippi and Tennessee, it follows the musician into his natural habitat of run-down juke joints, roadside diners and freight-train yards, as he reflects on his past life and recent rise to fame. In addition to Steve's raw, stomping tunes, the soundtrack features Mississippi Fred McDowell, Robert Johnson, RL Burnside and BB King.


Definitely going to be worth a watch especially as it's followed by this

Seasick Steve and his band bring their unique brand of 'Hill Country' delta blues to the young audience at Reading festival in August 2008.


Look here for a taster

It is a repeat from about two weeks ago.
I have only got three of his albums, but they are fantastic. I always thought he was younger than he is, i put him in his lat 40s but he is nearly in his 70s. hope he comes out with a biography as it should be interesting.
