Masada Live at Tonic is a DVD of a live performance by John Zorn's Masada filmed at Tonic in the summer of 1999.

Synopsis

Avec la sortie de Masada Live at Tonic 1999, Zorn et le réalisateur Antonio Ferrera visent à remédier à cela en sortant un set particulièrement chaud d'une nuit particulièrement chaude dans l'un des principaux terrains de jeu de Zorn, Tonic à New York. L'un des attraits de Tonic est sa petite taille. L'amplification est complètement inutile, et bien qu'il n'y ait pas de détails techniques répertoriés sur le DVD astucieusement emballé, le soupçon est qu'il s'agissait d'un enregistrement très simple - un certain nombre de micros de salle stratégiquement placés au-dessus de la scène et trois caméras à partir desquelles Ferrera capture comme autant que possible de l'énergie vivante qu'est Massada.

Located alongside the Tennessee River, Muscle Shoals, Alabama is the unlikely breeding ground for some of America's most creative and defiant music. Under the spiritual influence of the "Singing River," as Native Americans called it, the music of Muscle Shoals has helped create some of the most important and resonant songs of all time. At its heart is Rick Hall who founded FAME Studios. Overcoming crushing poverty and staggering tragedies, Hall brought black and white together in Alabama's cauldron of racial hostility to create music for the generations. He is responsible for creating the "Muscle Shoals sound" and The Swampers, the house band at FAME that eventually left to start their own successful studio, known as Muscle Shoals Sound. Greg Allman, Bono, Clarence Carter, Mick Jagger, Etta James, Alicia Keys, Keith Richards, Percy Sledge and others bear witness to Muscle Shoals' magnetism, mystery and why it remains influential today.

Le film suit Lil Wayne avant et après la sortie de l'album Tha Carter III, dans la perspective du cinéma direct, sans aucune interview du rappeur. Bien que celui-ci ait donné son accord pour le film, il tenta d'en bloquer la sortie après avoir vu la première projection au festival du film de Sundance 2009. Cette réaction était due au fait qu'on l'y voit consommer de la marijuana et du sirop à la codéine en grandes quantités. En dépit de son action en justice, le film est sorti le 17 novembre 2009 aux États-Unis en DVD et au téléchargement. Il a atteint la tête des iTunes movie charts pour sa première semaine et le Huffington Post l'a appelé « un des cinq meilleurs documentaires de hip-hop de tous les temps ».

The film documents how Ry Cooder, long-time friend of Wenders, brought together the ensemble of legendary Cuban musicians to record an album (also called Buena Vista Social Club) and to perform two times with a full line-up: in April 1998 in Amsterdam (two nights) and the 1st of July 1998 in the United States (at the Carnegie Hall, New York City). Although they are geographically close, travel between Cuba and the United States is restricted due to the political tension between the two countries, so many of the artists were travelling there for the first time. The film shows their reactions to this experience, as well as including footage of the resultant sell-out concert. It also includes interviews with each of the main performers.
