AMERICAN EPIC
May 23, 2017  | By David Bianculli

PBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

 

Part 2 of 3. In “Blood and Soil,” the second part of this three-part documentary on the origins of roots music, American Epic proves that weather has had an effect on music in general, and the blues in particular. An actual flood in Louisiana, for example, led to a flood of new music emigrating to the North. Watch and see – and, more to the point, listen. Check local listings.
