Typically documentaries, although I love them, leave me feeling distraught or outraged (or both), but this week my gf and I splurged on the film Soul Power, which left us happily grooving in our seats.
Soul Power is a musical documentary about an amazing concert held in Zaire in 1974. (This concert was also tied to the "Rumble in the Jungle" title fight between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman). The film features incredible performances from artists like James Brown, Bill Withers & BB King. The documentary also details the production of the concert & is complete with backstage footage & interviews. Music lovers, don't miss this one!
Here's the trailer:
