Description
The power of music connects American musicians with their West African counterparts in in a historical concert not seen in over 20 years.
March, 1971, several dozen African American musicians travelled from NYC to Accra, Ghana. Their primary purpose was to perform alongside African musicians in a 14-hour concert called 'Soul To Soul'. Ultimately, their journey was about personal roots, their ancestral homeland, history and discovery.
This documentary concert captures the story of black American souls connecting with black West African souls through the power of music. Now available for the first time in almost 20 years.
Featuring a stellar lineup including Wilson Pickett, Ike and Tina Turner backed by the Ikettes, Santana with Willie Bobo on percussion, Les McCann and Eddie Harris, The Staple Singers and The Voices of East Harlem - they are all joined on stages by a host of Ghanaian musicians.
The film Soul To Soul will be appearing at Cinemas throughout the UK from March 6 onwards with a Blu-ray and DVD release on May 12
