Description

[Machine Translation] Memphis Soul Passed Down: Nine Sessions of Gems. Memphis, Tennessee. Memphis, Tennessee has been the birthplace of a diverse range of music and has produced many world-class musicians who have been called "living legends. The film follows the process of this unprecedented project to bring the music and spirit of Memphis back to the modern world by bringing these musicians back to their hometown and making new recordings at the prestigious Royal Studios and other venues that transcend genres, races, and generations. This film is a documentary. The film depicts the precious sessions in which masters such as Booker T. Jones, Mavis Staples, and Bobby Bland and Skip Pitts, who sadly passed away after the recording, pass on their music to the next generation, while intertwining them with the history of discrimination against blacks symbolized by the rise and fall of Stax Records. The film tells the story of these sessions, intertwining them with the history of discrimination against blacks symbolized by the rise and fall of Stax Records. The scenes in which the great pioneers generously impart the secrets of their playing to the young people of the next generation are impressive, and the "soul" of the region that has been solemnly passed down from the past to the present overflows from the screen. A moving film that gives us a glimpse into the essence of music. [Session 1: "Supposed to Be" by Booker T. Jones with North Mississippi All-Stars featuring Al Capone / Session 2: "In a World Without Love" by Otis Clay featuring Lil Peanut / Session 3: "In a World Without Love" by Lil Peanut Push and Pull" by Bobby Rush featuring Fraser Boy / Session4.
