The Harry Smith Project Live is a fascinating exploration of the legacy of Harry Smith and his Anthology of American Folk Music. Directed by Hal Willner, the film captures a series of concerts featuring a diverse lineup of artists who pay tribute to Smith's eclecticism. There's a raw, gritty energy in these performances, with musicians interpreting folk classics and showcasing their own styles. The atmosphere is intimate yet charged, as if you’re right there in the audience experiencing it all. The pacing varies, sometimes languid, sometimes frenetic, but it all feels organic. The eclectic mix of voices and genres really reflects Smith's own varied tastes, making it a genuine homage rather than a sterile tribute. Definitely worth a look for anyone into the roots of American music.
