Following quickly on the heels of Roddy Bogawa and Storm Thorgerson’s Syd Barrett documentary Have You Got It Yet?, filmmaker Ethan Silverman has released the Marc Bolan documentary Angelheaded Hipster. Across the pond in England, there’s a nationwide preview coming tomorrow that will feature commentary from Silverman, producer Bill Curbishley, and Marc’s son Rolan Bolan. DIY Magazine features editor Lisa Wright will serve as host.
The film includes clips of Marc Bolan performing and interviews with him, as well as interviews with Elton John and Ringo Starr. Silverman also filmed musical interpretations by Nick Cave, Joan Jett, Macy Gray, U2, Lucinda Williams, and other music acts. It’s not clear when or if Angelheaded Hipster will be released in America.
