Before rock & roll had a name, Lead Belly's music shaped its sound-igniting skiffle, the Beatles, and Led Zeppelin. With rare footage, electrifying performances, and interviews with music greats, this doc explores his defiant journey from prison to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. He inspired Janis Joplin, BB King, Van Morrison. But George Harrison said it best: "No Lead Belly, no Beatles."
