I've seen it , it's a great film 

Brill! set to record! I love these BBC4 music docs.

Wow I hadn't seen that before.

 

For me 110 minutes of music heaven.

 

I feel humble

I.'ve recorded it so I can watch it when I get back from Prestatyn. Steve

Recorded it and hoping to watch it later. Great that documentaries of this sort get made and aired.

Excellent viewing - well recommended.

A brilliant documentary that really showcases the classic music made in Muscle Shoals.

Could have done without Bonio....did he ever record there?  I could understand the Stones input.  But if it helps get the message out then all well and good.  Apart from that it was a fantastic documentary a real insight into the studios and what came out of them. 

 

If you haven't already you need to go and buy all the cd's Kent have issued from the Fame vaults, some superb music, released and unreleased.

Cracker.....loved it

 

Never knew Helen Keller was from Muscle Shoals!!...remember watching a movie about her life when I was a kid......scared me to death.

 

Would have liked to have seen some footage of Millie Jackson.......they could have cut out that Irish dude with the permanent sun-glasses to make room for Millie instead

Thanks for the heads up!!    Great programme

Watched this in the early hours of Sat morning; one of the best music documentaries I've ever seen.

It's going to be shown again on BBC4 and BBC4 HD at ten past midnight tonight.

Well worth staying up for or taping.

 

Regards.

A big 'ditto' to all that's gone before - absorbing and awesome.

Thought it dragged on a bit.  I've got a colour documentary on the Fame Studios from circa 1970 which I enjoyed more.  Still, another great documentary from BBC 4.

Watched it twice now, loved it that much...

Obviously Bono had nowt to do with Muscle Shoals but he's there to make the doc saleable to the kind of clowns for whom "I've never heard of them/it" is a reason not to watch rather than the best reason in the world to widen your horizons.

Tiresome but understandable.....it's all about the Benjamins, baby!

Does Bonio carry any clout with the kids of today?  He doesn't with Ellie or any of her mates and I would imagine it would be the same for most generations unless you like U2??

I think U2 fans are probably aged between 30 and 50 in general

Well, they are possibly the biggest rock band in the world, and his name is recognised by just about everyone. Like TV execs and distributors. Like I said, it's about money, not taste or relevance.

Superb 

Loved it, visually stunning too.

The Movie is Superb!

 

The place itself is Magical!

 

A couple of pics of me and Tats from a few years ago... trying to pass off as Dan and Spooner...
