Blues Trails Revisited
When Grammy- and Emmy-award winning documentary filmmaker Ted Reed was moving his office, he uncovered his 27-minute 16mm black and white film “Thinking Out Loud”, shot in 1971. Filmed on a several week adventure with his friend Tim Treadway, the two traveled from Boston through Memphis and Clarksdale to find and record some of the last living blues legends. “Thinking Out Loud” was seen at a handful of festivals, and then stored away. Fast forward fifty years has led to the compilation of then and now in his new film, “The Blues Trail Revisited.”
Revealing interviews with authors, historians and hospitality entrepreneurs, musicians and art dealers, state officials, museum managers, and travelers from Arkansas to Australia detail significant changes from the 1970s to present day. Also on this return trip, Ted reconnected with his collaborator on the film, Tim Treadway, for the first time in all those years and together they reflected on all that had passed in a half-century.
