The Bluesman has completed The Bluesmen


Paul Heidelberg, who has been known more than once or twice as "The Bluesman," recently completed a screenplay for feature film: "The Bluesmen." The work comes after a near life-long of the blues that has seen Heidelberg catch great acts by such blues legends as: John Lee Hooker, Lighntin' Sam Hopkins, Albert King, BB King and Mance Lipscomb. The writer spent a week in the Blues Capitol of the World, Clarksdale, Mississipi, in the heart of the Mississippi Delta, in part, to conduct research for his screenplay.
