One of the most significant blues releases of all-time was released this year with The American Folk Blues Festival 1962-1966. Lovingly produced by David Peck & Jon Kanis of Reelin’ In The Years Productions, along with John McDermott & Janie Hendrix of Experience Hendrix, this two volume DVD (and accompanying audio CD) is a treasure trove of previously unearthed performances filmed in Germany during these famed tours; featuring stunning footage of Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, Memphis Slim, T-Bone Walker, Otis Rush, Junior Wells and many others captured in their prime. RITY’s producers have spent the last decade archiving and preserving music performance footage from the last 50 years. Reelin’ In The Years Productions is achieving its goal of sharing as many of these gems with the public as possible, as well as making sure that all of the artists (or their estates) involved receive royalties for their work.
