Garland Jeffreys: The King of In Between
Garland Jeffreys: The King of In Between tells the powerful story of a trailblazing singer-songwriter who defied genre and racial boundaries. A fixture of New York’s music scene, Jeffreys fused rock, reggae, folk and soul into a sound uniquely his own. Featuring rare archival footage and candid interviews (Laurie Anderson, Bruce Springsteen, Vernon Reid, Harvey Keitel) the film captures his rise, his struggles, and the life in between.
Heart of a Dog
Det som i utgangspunktet er en fortelling om hennes avdøde, pote-malende og pianospillende terrier Lolabelle, rommer en strøm av refleksjoner rundt eksistensielle temaer som kjærlighet, drømmer og tap, og ettervirkningene av terrorangrep. Etter at mannen hennes Lou Reed døde i 2013 fungerer filmen som en ettertanke over hva det betyr å være både et fysisk og åndelig vesen i vår komplekse verden.
Peter Gabriel - So (Classic Album)
The latest addition to the acclaimed & award winning Classic Albums series tells the story behind the making of Peter Gabriel’s 1986 album ‘So’. It was Gabriel’s fifth solo album and the first one to have a title. The album spawned a number of hit singles on both sides of the Atlantic including Sledgehammer, Big Time, Don’t Give Up (a duet with Kate Bush) and In Your Eyes which drove ‘So’ to multi-platinum sales, the No.1 spot in the UK and No.2 in the US. ‘So’ was very much an album of the MTV generation and the distinctive videos for tracks like Sledgehammer, Red Rain, Big Time and Don’t Give Up were key factors in the album’s success. The programme features contributions from many of those involved in the making of the album and the videos including Peter Gabriel himself, co-producer Daniel Lanois, engineer Kevin Killen and musicians Jerry Marotta, Laurie Anderson, Tony Levin and Manu Katché amongst many.
