THE BLUES ACCORDING TO LIGHTIN' HOPKINS-1970-Nice cozy 45 minute documentary about the great delta blues man Lightin' Hopkins. He strums his guitar, tells stories and tries to explain “the blues”. It also features many residents of the rural Texas he lived in when this was filmed there in 1967 by Les Blank.
A WELL SPENT LIFE-1972-Sharecropper

and marriage in Navasota, Texas. He also appears in THE BLUES
ACCORDING TO LIGHTIN' HOPKINS. Les Blank co-directed it with Skip
Gershon.
Thanks for reading!
