Dont Start Me Talkin The Junior Wells Story (2004)

Junior Wells who died in 1998 was a superb harmonica player and singer who enjoyed a long and fruitful association with guitarist Buddy Guy had some great solo recordings Hoodoo Man Blues Messin with the Kid and was a worthy successor to Muddy Waters Howlin Wolf and the other blues masters who preceded him All of which comes across in Dont Start Me Talkinprovided youre willing to hang in there long enough to get it Hampered by poor continuity too many talking heads apparently the filmmakers failed to heed their own title deadly dull voiceover narration and a paucity of music this 88minute profile of Wells is half over before it takes off After that theres a lot more music including a performance with Guy whose partnership with Wells is memorably described by Dr John as Siamese twins sideways and a live version of Hoodoo Man Blues
