Introduction to the film
in English | about 10’
Talmage Farlow was a one-of-a-kind jazz guitar player, who suddenly burst onto the scene in the late 1940s, playing with all the jazz greats of his time, including in a famed trio with Charles Mingus and Red Norvo. Just as suddenly, Tal, as his friends called him, walked out of the limelight in 1958. This documentary, shot on gorgeous 16mm, tries to find out what happened in the 20-odd years since Farlow left the world of jazz.
