Computer Files, Websites
A WELL SPENT LIFE is a deeply moving tribute to the Texas bluesman Mance Lipscomb, considered by many to be one of the greatest guitarists of all time. This glowing portrait of the legendary musician (also life-long husband and sharecropper) is among Les Blank’s special masterworks. Instead of growing bitter, tough times made Lipscomb sweet. Reportedly the favorite film of Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.
