"Viewers hoping to hear a historical narrative of the country blues or of the individual performances will be disappointed. What you get are the songs themselves - the performances tell the story ... Filming took place in a variety of settings and situations: recording studios, television programs, festivals, apartments, city streets, front porches, and various rooms in unknown locations. As expected, the performances are, with two exceptions, mostly shot in black and white, and while the footage varies in quality, the audio and visual elements of the DVD will certainly not distract the viewer".
