@NoRosesForMe No Big Bill was dead by then - the documentary is a 6 parter and it features cool archive footage of a small blues band
in it appear Bukka White - the Como Fife & Drum Band - Johnny Woods (who's not named) and a few others

isn't it strange that JR who was incredibly popular whose songs have been covered by many blues and rock artists has so little video coverage? where are all the videos that must be out there??

@JesseMathews This clip is from a music documentary series produced in the '70s called "All You Need Is Love". It's an excellent series, and is now on DVD - just google "All You Need Is Love DVD" for details. The frustrating part is that this Jimmy Reed clip is used in the short 'preview' feature for the series, but Jimmy Reed is NOT actually featured in the series. This clip is all there is.
