Soul To Soul (u) 1h 36m

Dir: Denis Sanders Cast: Tina Turner, Ike Turner, Roberta Flack Genre: Documentary Soul To Soul, a vibrant and historically significant 1971 concert film — featuring performances by Ike & Tina Turner, Santana, Wilson Pickett, the Staples Singers, Les McCann & Eddie Harris, and The Voices of East Harlem. In February 1971, several dozen African American soul, jazz, and gospel artists embarked on a journey that would change the lives of everyone involved. They travelled from New York City to Ghana, West Africa to take part in a 13-hour concert entitled Soul To Soul. The concert was a celebration of 14 years of Ghana’s independence from British rule. For most of these artists, it would be their first trip to Africa. For the African American musicians, this was a journey about personal roots, the ancestral homeland, history, discovery, loss, pain and joy. Directed by Academy Award winner Denis Sanders and produced by Tom Mosk & Richard Bock, the resulting concert film/documentary had a limited theatrical run in late 1971. Now, 55 years later, Soul To Soul will have another chance to connect with audiences. The film has been restored and reconstructed using the high quality 2K transfers from the original film elements, and the soundtrack has been remastered. – Guardian Bar opens from 7pm serving our fabulous cocktails, fine wines and craft beers, as well as savoury and sweet snacks.
