The blues is the foundation, and it's got to carry the top. The other part of the scene, the rock 'n' roll and the jazz, are the walls of the blues.

Support Sought for Lightnin' Hopkins Film PDF  | Print |  E-mail
ImageHouston-based Fast Cut Films and Sunset Productions are collaborating to produce a documentary feature film about the life and times of Houston blues legend Sam Lightnin’ Hopkins (1912-1982). The film is being produced and directed by the award-winning team of Mark Susman and Mike Snow. (http://www.wherelightninstrikes.com). They are seeking grass-roots funding as well as corporate sponsorships. They have initiated a T-shirt campaign to, in part, raise some money but much more is needed.

Snow, said, "We have the blessing of the estate, interest in the film from people around the world and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has expressed interest in screening the film when it is completed. The only thing we don't have are corporations/people/blues fans who are interested in helping with financing."

Help if you can and by all means spread the word .... http://www.wherelightninstrikes.com
