Pleasure + Pain (2002)

"Harper embodies an eclectic complexity that defies definition. This documentary encompasses behind-the-scenes footage, interviews with bandmates, family, and crew, and a running commentary from Harper that attempts to peel back his multitude of layers and shine some light into the sum of his parts. He is seen as the comedian on the tour bus, the finicky rock star with reporters, and the placid humble youth basking in his family's musical aptitude. Harper was raised in a music store and learned the craft of instrument repair. He talks masterfully about dozens of guitars, and how he found his unique sound through combinations of body type and slide technique. The viewer not only learns about Harper the musician, but Harper the man. The emotional climax comes in the form of him playing with his singer/songwriter mother, and then reminiscing about growing up in a house full of musicians. Bonus features include a.o. a live tracks section (featuring The Blind Boys Of Alabama." (Erik Crawford, Allmusic)
