"Only The Strong Survive" - Tape to Tape for Film
Finish
CHRIS HEGEDUS/D.A. PENNEBAKER
Stax Records launched the careers of Otis
Redding, Sam & Dave, Carla & Rufus Thomas, and Booker T. & The MGs
back in the 1960s and 70s. But then disco hit big and all but wiped soul music
off the map. This documentary harkens back to the golden era of soul and catches
up with the carriers of the Stax dynasty, including Wilson Pickett, Sam Moore,
Mary Wilson, Isaac Hayes, and The Chi
Lites.
