B.B. King and Joan Baez - In Concert at Sing Sing Prison, 1972
Editorial Review:
Description
Sing Sing Thanksgiving is the one of the greatest concert events ever captured on film. On Thanksgiving Day, 1972, BB King, his full band with Joan Baez and her sister, the late Mimi Farina, spent the day with the inmates of New York's maximum security prison. The film shows it all, including the concert. Joan Baez, B.B. King, The Voices of East Harlem, Jimmy Walker and the prison inmates combined to make music, tell stories, and so much more. B.B. King felt this was the best concert he ever gave. The program presents the relationship between inmates and officers, giving insight to both sides. This film won top awards at many film festivals around the world, including New York, Chicago and London.
