Yes, loved the movie (Siskel and Ebert both voted it the movie of 
the year that it came out...not just documentaries but ALL movies

I think he also came out with a kinda large baseball-cards-type 
series of drawings for blues singers as well.

Barry Wright sometimes has dinner with him in France.
