The following video is compiled from a conversation our friends at Babylon Falling had with Johnny Ace in his apartment in downtown San Francisco. Best known as a photographer for his images documenting what would become his friend, blues legend John Lee Hooker’s, last ever studio session, Ace is also a well-respected blues bassist. Their conversation covered many topics, but they’ve focused on a portion of it for this video in which Johnny talks about and shows us a collection of his photos that he envisions as a book called ‘Is This Man Jesus? – The Photography of Johnny Ace’. The photos span three decades and take us all over the United States, giving a glimpse into the lives of those people who his wife and fellow band member Cathy Lemons calls “the lost and forgotten, the belied and the beaten.” Video after the jump.
