Summary: Prime Time Radio presents "Truckin' My Blues Away," a music-rich documentary that profiles four Southern bluesmen and the folklorist who is working to preserve their music and showcase it on the world stage.
These guys consistently turn out great documentaries on topics that only regional insiders know about. They capture Americana culture that is dying for exposure and merits the highest artistic accolades yet somehow never makes it outside of neighborhood adulation. Isn't that the highest form of documentary?
