[blues in colour]

Had an amateur go at colourising these, like always they're not perfect but hopefully they give a new slant to the old clips

The one and only Lightning Hopkins filmed in Baden-Baden, Germany for the series 'Jazz Gehört und Gesehen' by Südwestfunk channel in September 1964.

Lightning Hopkins recorded on the 19th October 1964 at the Manchester Free Trade Hall as part of the American Folk Blues Festival tour in the UK. What a line up this was with Sugar Pie De Santo, Howling and Sonny Boy Williamson on the same bill!!
