Directed by Ed Gillan, Desperate Man Blues tells the story of self-proclaimed king of record collectors Joseph E. Bussard, Jr. of Frederick Maryland. Joe has amassed probably the greatest collection of 78 rpm recordings of country, blues, jazz, cajun and gospel music in the world. He has spent most of of his waking hours in pursuit of old 78s. To call it a hobby would be an insult: It's his life.
Check out the DVDÂ Desperate Man Blues. Joe's an eccentric record collector who's preserved all sorts of magical corners of music ' although he says things like 'There are no good jazz records made after 1927.' '? Elvis Costello
It's nice to have a DVD of this great documentary on Joe Bussard, plus another featurette, King of All Record Collectors, and other bonus stuff. Bussard is a stone gas, grooving around his basement amidst one of the finest collections of pre-war 78s ever assembled. A few nice archival shots of Fahey, too. And the stories are hilarious.

More than a half-century ago, a young country preacher from backwoods Alabama came to the big city and made his name leading one of Atlanta's largest Baptist congregations. In a great Southern metropolis renowned for its preachers, Rev. Johnny L. Jones stood out for his unique delivery that combined solid theological grounding and moody, explosive flights into a high-turbulence zone between song and speech, earning him a reputation as the Fireball Preacher and more famously, The Hurricane. Jesus Christ from A to Z(PT-4001) was compiled from more than 50 years of reel-to-reel tapes of live church recordings.Visit product page → -

Directed by Stewart Copeland, this 2010 documentary tells the story of 70-year-old buckdancing legend Thomas Maupin, who remains one of the greatest old-time dancers in America.
Framed between Thomas' recovery from cancer and his acceptance of a nationally-recognized award, this piece presents a deeply personal look at a folk icon.
As well as being a portrait of an artist, Let Your Feet Do The Talkin' asks the question, What drives us to perform? and examines art's ability to form and to strengthen relationships and to lift us above our circumstances.
