Director Hart Perry films interviews with Springsteen and John Hammond (both separately and together), as part of a work-in-progress documentary about the career of Hammond. This was early in the film's production schedule. However the untimely death of Hammond in October 1987 ended up causing a delay in the completion of the project.

Recording

John Hammond: From Bessie Smith To Bruce Springsteen was released commercially in various formats. Much of the late 1986 Springsteen film footage (allegedly including a solo, acoustic song performance ultimately not utilized in the documentary) remains in the vault. A brief audio snippet of Springsteen singing "Forever Young" at Hammond's October 23, 1987 funeral can be heard over the film's closing credits.

Broadcast (via PBS stations across the U.S.A.) on August 20, 1990.
