Director Ethan Silverman on AngelHeaded Hipster: The Songs of Marc Bolan & T. Rex

AngelHeaded Hipster: The Songs of Marc Bolan & T. Rex isn't a typical music documentary. While it does do what a viewer might expect in terms of using talking heads, archival footage, and critical analysis to tell the story of glam pioneer Marc Bolan and T. Rex, it also presents behind the scenes footage of artists like Nick Cave, Joan Jett, U2, Macy Gray, and many more cutting Bolan's songs in the studio for the late producer Hal Wilner's T. Rex tribute album (also called AngelHeaded Hipster). The result is a film that puts his songs at the core. Director Ethan Silverman joins us to discuss.
