Dig the sounds and eccentricities of Grammy-winning Hall of Fame musician Leon Russell in this electrifying and entertaining musical portrait by America’s greatest folk documentarian – the incredible Les Blank. Les Blank’s first feature-length documentary captures music and other events at Leon Russell’s Oklahoma recording studio during a three-year period captured in a fascinating way by Blank’s immense filmmaking talents. The concerts, the recording studio, the feel and taste of a time and place all imbued with the homegrown elements of Oklahoma that helped great Russell’s signature Tulsa sound.
