This documentary feature is about the unfortunately dying art of back up singers. Darlene Love, Merry Clayton and Judith Hill among others were depicted in this movie along with lead singers Mick Jagger, Bruce Springsteen, Sting, David Bowie and Bette Midler. The back up singers may not get the recognition from the fans and media but they are still working at the craft of their passion. The leads were also extremely supportive and recognized that the back ups are stars in their own right.
The music was catchy, toe-tapping and sing-a-long (even for those of us who can't carry a tune in a bucket) and the stories were heart-touching.
I give this a one and a half thumb up snapping fingers to the beat of the music and inspiring myself to follow my true passion(s).
