Listen Up: The Lives Of Quincy Jones
Himself
The extraordinary life of Quincy Jones -- one of the 20th century's most influential and talented composers, musicians and music producers -- provides the basis of this offbeat, free-form documentary tribute. With little regard for formal timelines and traditional documentary biography methods, the film is an amazing patchwork of personal insights featuring a constellation of music stars including his long-time friend Ray Charles, Miles Davis, Frank Sinatra, Herbie Hancock, Ella Fitzgerald, Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin, Dizzy Gillespie and rappers Big Daddy Kane and Flavor Flav, as well as politicians, filmmakers and other important people. Some of the most moving scenes involve Jones returning to his childhood home in Chicago and recounting honest and painful memories from his childhood. Jones does not shy from discussing everything -- from his mother's mental illness, to his marital problems, to his serious health conditions. He also looks frankly at his career.

Our Guests at Heartland
Хотите посмотреть, как песни The Beatles исполняют совсем молоденькие Bee Gees, Peter Frampton, Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, Earth,Wind&Fire, Steve Martin, Paul Nicholas, Billy Preston и др., тогда Вам сюда! Это игровой фильм и даже есть какой то сюжет, но самое главное в нем, это песни Великой четверкии их исполнители. Фильм выпущен в 1978 году,так что он, конечно, не дотягивает до современного Across the Universe, но как исторический факт и попытка прикосновения к великому-тоже ничего. Приятного просмотра!
