Title: OT Muscle Shoals film
Post by: ironbut on April 23, 2014, 07:28:46 PM

PBS stations is showing an Independent Lens about Muscle Shoals and all the great music that's been produced there.
They usually show these shows a few times and I'm sure it will be available for streaming eventually.
Looks like it should be killer!

The video is available for buy/rent on iTunes and Amazon Prime video.  I first saw it a few months ago on Apple TV when they were running a $.99 special.  It is indeed a great story with great music - including Rolling Stones and Steve Winwood ..... similar feel as "Sound City" ....

I also enjoyed the film "20 feet from Stardom".  http://www.amazon.com/20-Feet-Stardom-Bruce-Springsteen/dp/B00H8AX7R8/ref=sr_1_1_ha?s=instant-video&ie=UTF8&qid=1398345300&sr=1-1&keywords=20+feet+from+stardom+movie (http://www.amazon.com/20-Feet-Stardom-Bruce-Springsteen/dp/B00H8AX7R8/ref=sr_1_1_ha?s=instant-video&ie=UTF8&qid=1398345300&sr=1-1&keywords=20+feet+from+stardom+movie)

Cool, thanks for the info guys.
I didn't realize it but it looks like it's been around at least a year.
If I miss it somehow, I added it to my Amazon queue.

Saw it on the big screen at the Rehoboth Beach film festival last year.  Great movie and music.

That was great, amazing how much great music came out of that place.  If you haven't seen it check out the Sound City documentary i posted in the music section.
