It happens to be an exceptional concert and a significant day in the life of the 37-year old musician. DESTINED FOR THE BLUES is a biography of Riedel, the legendary leader of the band “Dzem.” It is the story of an escape from the drab reality of communist Poland into the world of music and, unfortunately, drugs.
