That being said I saw the film. Pretty decent.
definitely not an action packed sex filled extravaganza. just simple and modest in its beauty and down to earthness, just like the mans music. a pleasure to watch
daughters got a great voice (and is fine!!)
so one tidbit i found fascinating that martin alluded to was when bill mentions he didn't even get his first guitar until around 1970 , yet within the year of that he was already composing what would turn out to be some of the most enduring pop/soul standards of the decade.
People who've peeped already, is there any footage of him performing in Prospect Park a couple years back?
there is footage of a performance of his songs in a park with what looks to be a very sick and elderly cornell dupree on guitar. they show a bunch of other singers (corey glover), etc doing bill's songs as he sits in the audience with his wife when seemingly out of nowhere and to everyone's surprise bill decides to take the stage and join in on a jazzy version of "grandma's hands".
yeah it is on Netflix, great doc.
