20 feet from stardom

[George Geddes]

If you have any love of the popular music of the last 50 years, try and see this documentary. Brilliant look at the role of the backing singer.

Er, there is no link. It's a film currently doing the rounds in cinemas...

Seems available as torrent downloads if you are into that. Also on YouTube in several parts.

Agree with George. Worth seeing at the cinema if you can. For Londoners, showing at the Hackney Picturehouse today (Wed April 9th) and tomorrow.

The music - which is great - sounds better in the cinema... It's also easier to spot Big Jim Sullivan ( and possibly the headstock of John Rostill's bass?) in a Tom jones clip.
