Good price for a somewhat niche documentary


info added by @wadz


Documentary which depicts the recording of Aretha Franklin's live gospel album 'Amazing Grace' at the New Temple Missionary Baptist Church in Los Angeles in 1972. Filmed over two nights in January, Franklin is joined by Reverend James Cleveland and the Southern California Community Choir, while director Sydney Pollack captures the recording sessions.

In 1972, Aretha Franklin, the undisputed Queen of Soul, recorded an album of gospel music at The New Temple Missionary Baptist Church in Los Angeles, before an ecstatic live audience. The result, "Amazing Grace", went on to become one of the biggest albums of Aretha Franklin's career and one of her most beloved works.
But even as the album gained fans around the world, few realised that the inspirational sessions had not only been recorded, they had been filmed by a camera crew led by Oscar winning filmmaker Sydney Pollack. However, due to technical problems, the film has never been seen. Until now.
Music lovers won't want to miss this thrilling film, which is both an extraordinary look at a key moment in American musical and social history, and an invaluable record of one of America's greatest artists doing what she did best.

"One of the great music films" New York Times
"Pure, soaring joy" James King, BBC Radio 2

    I went to see this in the cinema and bought this last year on Blu Ray for £8. This is an amazing film as this was the the Queen of Soul returning to her Gospel/ Church roots and it was an amazing return. It’s a shame it took so long to get released but it’s available at an absolute steal of a price.

    It is one of the great music films. (edited)
