I've been enjoying Alan Lomax's interviews with Big Bill Broonzy in Paris in 1952 available at the Cultural Equity webpage:
http://research.culturalequity.org/get-audio-ix.do?ix=session&id=27&idType=collectionId&sortBy=abc

There's a few musical pieces, some of Broonzy's standard repertoire at the time & then they get down & do some talking & it's very interesting, especially Bill discussing chords & playing with bands & his musical 'ignorance'. It's great to hear Bill speak at length & the more known (& commercially released) interviews with Broonzy, Memphis Slim & John Lee 'Sonny Boy' Williamson are available there too.
