Director Martin Scorsese winds his way from the banks of the Niger River in Mali to the cotton fields and juke joints of the Mississippi Delta to trace the origins of the blues in a lyrical combination of original performances (including Corey Harris, Willie King, Taj Mahal, Keb' Mo', Otha Turner, Habib Koite, Salif Keita and Ali Farka Toure) and rare archival footage.

Willie King & The Liberators: "Spoonful"
Keb' Mo' & Corey Harris: "Sweet Home Chicago"
Otha Turner & Corey Harris: "Sitting On Top Of The World"
Salif Keita: "Folon"; Corey Harris: "Honeysuckle"
The Blue Series - under the guiding hand of Martin Scorsese, The Blues is a series of seven personal and impressionistic films viewed through the lens of seven-world famous directors who share a passion for the music, the films, by Scorsese, Mike Figgis, Wim Wenders, Clint Eastwood, Charles Burnett, Marc Levin and Richard Pearce, capture the essence of blues music and delve into its global influence - from it's roots in Africa to its inspirational role in today's music.
Says Scorsese: "I've always felt an affinity for blues music - the culture of storytelling through music is incredibly fascinating and appealing to me. The blues have great emotional resonance and are the foundation for American popular music." "These songs meant the world to me. I felt there was more truth in them than in any book I had read about America, or in any movie I had ever seen. I've tried to describe, more like a poem than in a 'documentary', what moved me so much in their songs and voices."
