The Blues Under the Skin

The Blues Under the Skin

In the early 1970s, music documentarian Robert Manthoulis traveled to the Mississippi Delta to capture the remnants of the authentic American blues. Virtually unseen in the U.S., "The Blues Under the Skin" is a thrilling rediscovery, an untapped treasury of musical performances that not only captures a vanishing musical form, but offers a priceless glimpse of 1970s Black life in the rural South.
