The musical biopic of jazz great Red Nichols features a healthy dose of melodrama along with the melodies. As the famed Dixieland cornetist, he runs into opposition to his sound, but breaks through to success. He marries a warm, patient woman (Bel Geddes) and even finds time to raise a family. Then tragedy strikes when their daughter contracts polio. The jazzman puts down his horn to stand by her. Among the musical cameos is a hot turn by Armstrong in a duet with Kaye.

Before breaking out as a hugely successful solo artist in the 1970s, Eric Clapton was already viewed as a major player in rock& roll through his work with the groups Derek and the Dominos, The Yardbirds, John Mayall's Blues Breakers, and Cream. It was while playing with these acts that Clapton fine-tuned the playing style and guitar skills that would become his trademark. In this easy-to-follow program, instructor Doug Boduch breaks down eight of Clapton's early songs with the aforementioned groups, taking viewers step-by-step through the techniques that Clapton used to create his powerful sound. Songs include: Cross Road Blues (Crossroads), Layla, All Your Love (I Miss Loving), Can't Find My Way Home, White Room, I Ain't Got You, Bell Bottom Blues, and Sunshine Of Your Love.
