NEW TUAREG ROCK FROM BOMBINO…PRODUCED IN NASHVILLE BY THE BLACK KEYS’ DAN AUERBACH
SUPPORT: ROBBIE BASHO DOC KICKSTARTER
Trailer…
From http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/326705872/voice-of-the-eagle-the-enigma-of-robbie-basho …
Before his bizarre death at the hands of a chiropractor, Robbie Basho was sure that his compositions would not outlast him. Orphaned during infancy, diagnosed with synaesthesia (a union of the senses that caused him to interpret sound as colour) and claiming to be the reincarnation of a 17th century poet – the Baltimore-born guitarist and singer’s musical output was equally as outlandish as his persona.
In his brief and troubled life he laid the foundations for radical changes to the musical landscape of America during the 1960s and 70s but reaped little more than a sparse (if fervent) following during his lifetime.
Voice of the Eagle: The Enigma of Robbie Basho is a journey into the heart of an artist’s lifelong struggle – designed to illuminate and satiate existing fans while serving as a perfect starting point for the uninitiated.
Featuring interviews with Basho’s former students, contemporaries and few close friends (including Pete Townshend of The Who and William Ackerman); the documentary will integrate new information and anecdotes on Basho with previously uncovered visual material, abstract employment of archive footage and photography of the natural phenomena and landscapes that informed his work.
With the resurgence of interest in Basho growing and a more widespread revival a tangible possibility, it is surely an auspicious time for his unique music and life story to be evoked through documentary.

ALAN MOORE’S HOME MOVIE
1993: 39-year-old Alan Moore narrates a walking history/tour of his hometown and forever place of residence, Northampton, in an unbroadcast 22-minute film by Robert Farmer. Tales of cultural loss and farce, the bleakness tempered by tenderness; a current of anger inevitably rises as yet another demolition is recounted. Nicely shot; the bit of wind and Alan-hair on the mic is more charming than distracting.
