Movie Summary:
[Music]
In 1974, one of the greatest fights of the century was taking place in Kinshasa, Zaire, between George Foreman and Muhammad Ali. The event was a celebration of black sports and music. The legendary B.B. King was invited to take part in a three-day music festival. His performance before an audience of 80,000 Africans (look closely for Ali in the audience) is considered one of the greatest of his phenomenal career--a career that earned him the title of "King of the Blues." Songs include "The Thrill is Gone," "Sweet Sixteen," "Why I Sing the Blues" and more.
