I am so sad that this documentary was the only way I could find access to this footage. The director is a self-absorbed twit who's more interested in seeing Bruce Haack as what caused the Chemical Brothers than he is in seeing who Bruce Haack was or why he did any of it.

I completely agree with you, deltasleep. I hope PBS puts out a better documentary someday. In the mean time, I'll be looking for his albums. I've only found his one major label release so far :-(

thanks tapirA!
Bruce Haack is a huge influence! So I'm taking that as quite a compliment.
If you like Bruce Haack's work on Electric Lucifer, you might also enjoy White Noise- Electric Storm.
I really resented how this documentary seemed to find the value of his music in the form of contributing to contemporary music(and weak contemporary music)
I feel that BR was an interesting enough person to warrant being studied for his own sake.
