ABOUT THE FILM:
“‘The Soundtrack of Our Lives’ is an exhilarating trip down musical memory lane. Be prepared to laugh, cry, stomp your feet and applaud.” – NBC News
“The saga of a tender musical fairy godfather.” – Variety
Chris Perkel’s riveting profile of legendary music man Clive Davis spans a remarkable five-decade career, providing an incredible tour of the most sensational music of the cultural revolution, from the ’60s to the rise of hip-hop. Bruce Springsteen, Whitney Houston, Santana, Aretha Franklin, Barry Manilow, Patti Smith, Alicia Keys, Sean “Puffy” Combs, and a great many more attest to Davis as, in Aretha Franklin’s words, “the greatest record man of all time.” This amazing film is definitive, fascinating and ceaselessly entertaining proof.
