Rumble: The Indians Who Rocked the World (2017)
RUMBLE: THE INDIANS WHO ROCKED THE WORLD (2017) ¢ ¢ ¢ 1/2
D: Catherine Bainbridge, Alfonso Maiorana
A documentary about the impact of Native Americans on everything from jazz, blues and metal to folk, rock and rap. Charlie Patton, Mildred Bailey, Jimi Hendrix and the Band's Robbie Robertson are among those profiled. Witnesses include Robertson, Tony Bennett, Martin Scorsese and John Trudell. It'd be worth watching this just for the segment on Link Wray, and any movie in which Buffy Sainte-Marie appears, even briefly, is fine by me.
