    What a artist , superb

    Thoroughly enjoyed the documentary of Richard Estes. Recently shown on PBS in my area.

    What a nice guy , straightforward and unassuming. I am not an artist but interested in photography.

    So enjoyed his talent with use of photography to assist his artwork .

    Previous reviewer of 2020 mentioned the background jazz music which l too enjoyed .

    Although l don't know who was necessarily playing but l have an old LP from the '70's called Jazz in a Penthouse by various artists which has track called Lonely Girl by Pete Jolly.

    This track captures the essence of the movie soundtrack if not inspired by .

    I generally like the album a lot so is worth seeking out for all the other tracks too.

    So thank you Richard for your great talent and documentary.

    Soundtrack?

    Great documentary! Is there a playlist of all those nice jazz tracks played in the background? Or does anyone recognize any? Shazam didn't :-(
