On the 88’s offers an intimate portrait of blues piano legend Pinetop Perkins, charting his journey from the Mississippi Delta to the world stage with Muddy Waters. Featuring electrifying performances and candid interviews with Koko Taylor, Ike Turner, Dr. John, and more, it’s a joyful, unfiltered look at a true original.
