Junior Wells, who died in 1998, was a superb harmonica player and singer who enjoyed a long and fruitful association with guitarist Buddy Guy, had some great solo recordings ("Hoodoo Man Blues," "Messin' with the Kid"), and was a worthy successor to Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, and the other blues masters who preceded him. All of which comes across in Don't Start Me Talkin'--provided you're willing to hang in there long enough to get it. Hampered by poor continuity, too many talking heads (apparently the filmmakers failed to heed their own title), deadly dull voiceover narration, and a paucity of music, this 88-minute profile of Wells is half over before it takes off. After that, there's a lot more music, including a performance with Guy (whose partnership with Wells is memorably described by Dr, John as "Siamese twins, sideways") and a live version of "Hoodoo Man Blues." It's not Junior Wells in his prime, but even though he is an engaging, well-spoken fellow, it still beats simply listening to him (and many others, including Carlos Santana, Steve Miller, and B.B. King) talk. --Sam Graham

Customer Reviews of Don't Start Me Talkin' - The Junior Wells Story
Get it if you don't have it! A much needed documentary on an absolute blues legend. Great interviews, very good sound. Would as always benefit from more performance footage but that being said there is some excellent footage of Junior and amusing footage of Bruce Willis thinking he's 'with' the band!
It's Junior Wells! 'nuff said.
