Jodie Drake: Blues in My Bread

1991 · 28 min Documentary Music

Blues and jazz singer Jodie Drake is a legend. From her beginnings in Detroit to her many years of breaking ground in Canada, she has consistently promoted Black music, often simply through the power of her voice. Blues in my Bread made for a CBC national broadcast, presents the women in all her glory. Browne had full access to the singer, her interview and performances combine with now rare footage from Drakes TV appearances in the 60's and 70's add an important chapter to the history of jazz and blues in Canada.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Jodie Drake: Blues in My Bread is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1991. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
