The documentary Clarence Clemons: Who Do I Think I Am? takes an intimate look at one at one of the world’s most famous saxophone players, the late Clarence Clemons.
After Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band’s marathon “Rising Tour” came to an end in 2003, deeply spiritual E Street Band saxophonist Clarence Clemons packed up his axe and journeyed to China, where he could be more or less a nameless traveler in a foreign land. Following him was director, friend and photographer Nick Mead, who documented Clarence’s transcendent awakening overseas. Once Clarence had returned to the States, Mead decided to keep the cameras rolling, which is when tragedy struck: while in Florida, Clarence suffered a stroke and passed away.
Ultimately, the film became more than just a document of Clarence’s spiritual journey – it became a biography for his life and a love letter and farewell from those that knew him best.
Who Do I Think I Am? features interviews with President Bill Clinton, Joe Walsh and E Street guitarist Nils Lofgren, among others.
The film was one of the spotlight premieres at the recent Asbury Park Music and Film Festival this past April.
