Derroll Adams' Message to the World (with French subtitles)

The late great Derroll Adams, a dear friend sorely missed, has a message to the world. From the film "L'Homme au Banjo" directed by Patrick Ferryn (Belgian TV Broadcast, with French subtitles).
Heartfelt thanks go to another good Belgian friend who provided this documentary.

Blessed be, the Banjo man, with the tattoo on his hand! Never anyone better or a voice sweeter.

'O come ye starry starfish, riddle me no more, for news I am weary, and my heart is sore...come to me and tell me if you can, are there any words to hear of my banjo man?' I agree with Derroll Adams but his banjo speaks for him best.

Just found Derroll tonight after losing him for must be 40 years, since my dope smoking days when he sounded perfect, along with Rambling Jack Elliott.
Now he's dead. What a bummer. And so is dope smoking judging by those 'getting doug with high' things.... imagine Derroll in that scene? No possible.
I didn't know Derroll was so serious about things generally, the bad stuff in the world. He's right, was right and I'm right with him.
He was a great guy and I find his music and voice,personality, message, just as clear and striking and real today as it was back then.
Maybe we ought to do a revival of Derroll. I'll be putting him before my kids for sure...
