Hi all,

Have checked the archives of this forum to only find expired links, so not to revive a dormant topic, but...

Any way I can watch this documentary? It was recommended to me recently and I am dying to see it.

All the best

I'm guessing you're asking for the one with  a banjo on the cover.

I looked for it using a SHOPPING app, and got the Chamber Music of Robert Ward.

Ward's product is available at WALMART.

IF that's what you're after.

But nothing on the other one. Sorry.

If you mean the Channel 4 TV programme I believe it used to be on you tube, maybe still is. If it isn't there in full you can still see an extract of a young Leroy Troy and Cordell Kemp where Leroy is playing My Grandfather's Clock. Personally I think it is his best version.

Have not found it on the internet. Here are the details about the documentary. Maybe you can find it at a library near you.

In addition to the Leroy Troy track mentioned above on You Tube there is another clip from the programme by The Skirtlifters; "I've got a Bulldog".

OCLC's record shows this as having been released by Landmark Media in Fall's Church, VA. The only record was for a VHS version, and only 10 libraries in the US were listed as holding institutions. That doesn't help you much in Dublin, I realize. Like you and others, I had no luck finding a digitized copy on the web. You might try an email to Landmark or following up with the director, Matthew Whiteman.

Here's a snip from the OCLC record:
