This movie is a documentary showing the evolution of a musical style. Fortunately for the viewer, it is also an opportunity to see some of the practitioners of that style in much footage never before released. A must-see for devotees of the style, enlightening and entertaining for others. The effective use of interviews, physical tours of the birthplaces of the music and lengthy performances give the viewer quite an overview of this music and its practitioners. An illuminating look at the gutsy and raw Delta-inspired music. ~ Tana Hobart, All Movie Guide

Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart were at the height of their popularity in the group The Eurythmics, when this film of their concert tour of Japan was made. Despite the fact that the performers have little of interest to offer in their offstage moments, the concert footage shows that they know how to entertain onstage. Further, reviewers fell all over themselves in their praise for the director's skill in filming the event. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
