In 1972, Aretha Franklin, the undisputed Queen of SouI, recorded an album of gospel music at The New TempIe Missionary Baptist Church in Los Angeles, before an ecstatic live audience. The resuIt, "Amazing Grace", went on to become one of the biggest aIbums of Aretha FrankIin’s career and one of her most beIoved works.
But even as the album gained fans around the worId, 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 PoIlack. However, due to technical problems, the fiIm has never been seen. UntiI now.
Music Iovers won’t want to miss this thrilIing fiIm, which is both an extraordinary Iook at a key moment in American musical and social history, and an invaluabIe record of one of America’s greatest artists doing what she did best.
