thank you, Mr. Scorsese
12.19.2003
I am in debt to Martin Scorsese and his fellow directors for the film series The Blues that aired on PBS in October. I'd always liked the blues before, but didn't have much familiarity with it, being more into jazz and bluegrass. But now I've been made acquainted with Son House, Skip James, Blind Willie Johnson, and the brilliant Corey Harris. So thank you, Scorsese et al. You have made my life richer. Television should always be so good.
